![]() ![]() I remember hearing about Wolfe’s novel when it first came out either in a print review of a radio interview, I can’t remember. There are fewer such novels than I imagined (name some, if you can). The scholarship of teaching and learning (my general academic field these days) is dominated by social scientists and their methodologies, and so I was excited by the call because it signaled a space for my training and as impetus for me to “investigate” novels about higher education. I read Tom Wolfe’s *I am Charlotte Simmons* because of a call-for-papers from a journal looking for articles about higher education written by humanities scholars. ![]() This book is meant to be both a character study (as the title suggests) and social commentary on the state of higher education. ![]()
