Abstract
“How to Fail College” is a collection of short stories which explore both the physical college setting and the related feelings of aimlessness, anxiety, and guilt. This depiction of college aims to be serious, without sounding serious—to be funny without turning into parody. This is not technically an instruction manual, but all five stories should give a clear indication of how and why each character fails out of college.
