Book Description
Deception, deceit, extortion, high tech espionage, and violence. If these things were preceded by the phrase "the answer is" on the game show Jeopardy, you wouldn't expect the question to be "things found at a college." But that actually is the case at Seward, a college that is part of a new breed of institutions of higher education called proprietary colleges that are actually profit making business ventures. The Dean's List chronicles a takeover battle involving an agressive conglomerate, Tribax, and Seward, a succesful proprietary college. The struggle divides the college and is characterized by underhanded dealings, black mail, and violence. The main character of the book, Joe Hammond, who is the Dean of Admissions at this fictitious college, struggles to the fight the good fight against the takeover while dealing with personal issues involving an affair with a young girl and the break-up of his marriage. The Dean's List is packed with twists and turns as well as a surprise ending. A great read from start to finsh.

Book Description
A world-renowned authority on the science of alcohol exposes its influence on our health, mood, sleep, emotions, and productivity -- and what we can and should do to moderate our intake. From after-work happy hour to a nightly glass of wine, we're used to thinking of alcohol as a normal part of our daily lives. In Drink?, neuropharmacology professor David Nutt takes a fascinating, science-based look at drinking to unpack why we should reconsider our favorite pastime. Using cutting-edge scientific research and years of hands-on experience in the field, Nutt delves into the long- and short-term effects of alcohol. He addresses topics such as hormones, mental health, fertility, and addiction, explaining how alcohol travels through our bodies and brains, what happens at each stage of inebriation, and how it effects us even after it leaves our systems. With accessible, easy-to-understand language, Nutt ensures that readers recognize why alcohol can have such a negative influence on our bodies and our society. In the vein of This Naked Mind,Drink? isn't preachy; it simply gives readers clear, evidence-based facts to help them make the most informed choices about their consumption.

Book Description
S.E. Hinton meets Cruel Intentions in this exciting and fast paced thriller by Jimmy Petrosino. Growing up, Dean Perrasani always dreamed of following in the footsteps of his idol and older brother, Tyler. At nineteen his dream would be fulfilled. Dean is now president of Phi Beta Regnum, the very fraternity Tyler ran nearly ten years earlier. To the outsider Regnum is your typical fraternity. But that’s what they want everybody to believe. Secretly it’s a crime syndicate created by one of the most ruthless mobsters in the world, Alfred Calarone. Seeing how much revenue could be generated on a university campus, Calarone took the same blueprint that worked for the mafia for so many years and implemented it onto a university, using teenagers with troubled pasts to do his dirty work. Dean, like the men before him, including Tyler, must run the fraternity like a mafia don. He must create his very own caporegime. And he must become immune to the violence and backstabbing that comes with the job. But Dean believes he can be different than the men before him, even his brother, and run the fraternity as a legitimate enterprise. But how? Not knowing his friends from his enemies, Dean must keep himself in power long enough to pull off his master plan—to exact revenge on those responsible for murdering his older brother.
