"The book is brilliant on every level!"
Rudy Chavarria Jr., Publisher - College Web Magazine www.collegewebmagazine.com
"...That's good advice, as is the case with everything Kane includes in his exhaustive campus survival manual, Protect Yourself at College, published this spring by Capital Books of Sterling, VA. But here's an even hotter tip from someone who's read it from cover to cover: 'Buy your student this book as a high school graduation present." And while your at it, buy a copy for yourself, as well, and pass it along to all of your teen and tween-aged children. Although Protect Yourself at College specifically is geared toward college life, most of the information here is applicable to any lifestyle, and particularly to young adults taking their first independent steps into the world at large..."

"If you want your kids to be safer at college, read this book. It's probably things they should know but will forget the day they arrive on campus. Help them remember with information from Protect Yourself at College: Smart Choices - Safe Results."
- Joseph Newport, Associate Director Public Safety, Indiana State University
"Keeping students safe while attending college is a fundamental right. As a State Representative for over two decades, protecting our children is of utmost importance. Protect Yourself at College should be read by parents, high school seniors, and college students. By reading this book, students will be better able to protect themselves in the event a dangerous situation occurs on campus."
- Joseph F. Markosek, State Representative, Pennsylvania
"The stories and precautions suggested throughout this book can aid in reducing the risk of a student becoming a victim of a crime or an accident statistic."
- Thomas R. King, Chief of Police, State College, Pennsylvania, from the foreword
"I am planning on giving this book as my standard HS graduation gift. What I like about the book was the ease of reading about the various topics of interest (and importance) to college students. Even though HS students think they know it all, there was information here that I think they will find not only to be new and informative, but also a reminder of what could happen and how to be prepared. I did not find it preachy or judgmental, but a good resource of what to expect. I highly recommend this book."
- K. Harrison, Amazon book reviewer (Boston, Massachusetts)
"If someone is going away to school, maybe living on their own, in the dorms, or in an apartment for the very first time, I think this would be a really valuable book. It's a really nice broad reference book for living away from home for the first time."
- WEAU - The Wisconsin Journal: Book Buzz with Sarah Stokes
"I really enjoyed this book and found it very informative and helpful. With a wife planning on attending Northern Illinois University I especially like the section on guns at school. I recommend this book for any student planning on attending college or a parent of someone who will attend. This book is very easy reading and I liked the author's tips."
- L. Webb, Amazon book reviewer (Crystal Lake, IL)
