Established in 1971, Tattered Cover Book Store is one of America's premier independent bookstores, a Denver institution, a community gathering place, and an experience you can't download.
Tattered Cover is a locally-owned business with an unwavering commitment to the customer and the community, with four unique stores in metro Denver, and three satellite stores at Denver International Airport. Each location offers personal service, a large, well-curated selection of new and used books, an extensive newsstand, and gifts.

Tattered Cover Book Store is an Equal Employment Opportunity. I have worked as a community college counselor for over 20 years. As a counselor, I provide academic, career, and personal counseling to students in addition to teaching classes in the area of Human/Career Development. Additionally, I serve as the campus transfer services coordinator.
A new college student has a daunting transition to make, and there are several things a new college student can do to ease that transition. First, at the college level, it would be wise for the new student to attend college orientation to find out about college resources and programs that he or she might qualify for. Most students are fairly unaware of all of the things they can do to improve their experience and outcome. Hence, in my class, I am informative in my syllabus by listing contact information for the Reading and Writing Center, DSPS, EOPS, etc., just in case the students didn't learn about these outlets in another context. Fortunately, because I teach mostly basic skills classes, I have been working closely with the counselors, who have visited the class to further guide and direct students, talking about survival skills and whatnot.
I love to hear that students who have previously been intimidated by science find it fascinating and fun. Recently a student completed the class and then wrote a rap song inspired by gas gangrene. Many microbiology students go on to careers in allied health, particularly nursing. I am humbled that I get to be a part of their career plans. I often joke with my students that if I am their patient one day I want to know that they really understand key elements of infection and disease.

You will learn life, job, and communication skills; and so much more, but you have to be engaged in order to truly benefit from it. Often, students limit themselves by choosing common majors because they believe they can get a good job with that degree. Often, these students don't care for the coursework and end up doing poorly in their studies as a result. Students should find their passion and study what they enjoy! It's important to keep in mind that the majority of undergraduate college degrees will not lead you to a job in a specific field. Students who study what they enjoy can pursue work experience opportunities at the university level to gain experience in areas that pique their interests.
The college degree coupled with work experience makes for a powerful combination when interviewing for jobs. Currently, there are two Bookworm store locations in Tel Aviv, one on Rabin Square and another on Maze Street. The bookstore, founded in 1986, attracts customers by combining the bookstore with a laptop-friendly coffee shop.
Special regard should be given to the pastry and cookie selection, which can add a homey twist to your relaxed afternoon reading. The store offers a fairly large number of books in genres including art, design, fiction and graphic novels. It's also an ideal place to recharge your batteries after a long sightseeing walk around Tel Aviv. The Little Prince is truly a place to spend time for any serious bookworm.
It contains a wide selection of books in Hebrew, but also in Russian, French and Spanish, and has an entire room of literature in English. For readers looking for something peculiar such as Wilhelm Stekel's guide to dream interpretation or a Sephardic cuisine cookbook in Turkish, this bookstore is the best spot to start your search. The prices are attractive, which has earned The Little Prince a stable stream of customers. Once a year, The Little Prince hosts a unique used book fair featuring rare volumes on art history, philosophy, anthropology and more for a very low price.

You will learn from expert instructors with access to innovative learning opportunities and state-of-the-art facilities. On a personal level, I encourage new students to see college as life-changing and allow the experience to give them new insights and perspectives about their lives and those of others. This requires some commitment to independence and being an individual, as this is their lives, not their parents. They are no longer children, and since most incoming freshmen are around the age of 18, this advice is significant because they are claiming their lives as their own.
For re-entry students who are new to the campus, the personal transition is much different, as these students are torn in many directions. A good schedule is necessary for all students, but especially for re-entry students who have families, work full-time, and are trying to get a college education. Set aside time for your studies everyday, but don't forget to sometimes have time alone for just yourself. Jason advises that community college is a great place for someone who wants to explore everything the world has to offer.
Community college is the perfect place to start, Jason says, it's easy to get the classes you need, has a relaxing atmosphere, and is just a stop along the way to your bigger career ambitions.

Throughout the semester, many students have panic moments; this usually hits around mid-term time. Many students come to my office, which I encourage them to do. This is part of them developing the confidence they'll need throughout college. They need to connect with their professors, and when they do, they often grow in new ways. They are taking initiative to help themselves, and this is them taking responsibility for the outcome of their goals.
Many students go through their trials on their own, and while many find their way, there are also many who sink in isolation. As a result, I encourage students to talk to me during office hour. In my developmental writing classes, I actually schedule one-on-one conferences with each student for a chance to connect with each student individually and give them feedback based on their individual performance. These meetings also allow me to help guide the students so they can move in the direction of progress for the remainder of the semester. This gives many students who have for such a long time believed they cannot write and therefore hate writing a slight hope that maybe the class won't be so painful.
