Book Description
"Closest Alligator to the Boat" is a book about professional and personal development for college students. Think of it as a series of office hours sessions with a professor but in a short, written format. These "office hours" will address students' objectives, logistics, and morale for navigating college and life. This book is for college students who want to learn about themselves, make a change in their lives, get somewhere, achieve a goal, improve themselves, help others, or just get some different perspectives about professional and personal development options. This book will be especially useful for students who are feeling overwhelmed, behind, confused, unsure, or scared about their classes, major, the "world of academics," interacting with professors, handling professional relationships, conflicts with individuals or institutions, and trying to "do it all." The book's title "Closest Alligator to the Boat" comes from an old military saying that applies to a variety of situations. It refers to dealing with the most vital and urgent issue first. If you want to survive and thrive, you will need to "attack" whichever "alligator" is directly in front of you. It is important to tackle the things in life that are "mission critical," i.e., prioritize what matters most. This book will help students to prioritize certain ways of thinking and acting in order to achieve their short- and long-term goals.

Alligator Candy
Author: David Kushner
Publisher: Simon and Schuster
ISBN: 1451682638
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 256
Book Description
From award-winning journalist David Kushner, a reported memoir about family, survival, and the unwavering power of love—and the basis for the podcast Alligator Candy. David Kushner grew up in the early 1970s in the Florida suburbs. It was when kids still ran free, riding bikes and disappearing into the nearby woods for hours at a time. One morning in 1973, however, everything changed. David’s older brother Jon biked through the forest to the convenience store for candy, and never returned. Every life has a defining moment, a single act that charts the course we take and determines who we become. For Kushner, it was Jon’s disappearance—a tragedy that shocked his family and the community at large. Decades later, now a grown man with kids of his own, Kushner found himself unsatisfied with his own memories and decided to revisit the episode a different way: through the eyes of a reporter. His investigation brought him back to the places and people he once knew and slowly made him realize just how much his past had affected his present. After sifting through hundreds of documents and reports, conducting dozens of interviews, and poring over numerous firsthand accounts, he has produced a powerful and inspiring story of loss, perseverance, and memory. Alligator Candy is searing and unforgettable.
