Following a long lineage of Black feminist and feminist of color critiques of the university, Ahmed delivers a timely consideration of how institutional change becomes possible and why it is necessary.

As the commercialization of American higher education accelerates, more and more students are coming to college with the narrow aim of obtaining a preprofessional credential.

Class ends. Students pack up and head back to their dorms. The professor, meanwhile, goes to her car...to catch a little sleep, and then eat a cheeseburger in her lap before driving across the city to a different university to teach another, wholly different class.

Life from a higher perspective is about focusing on what matters, living consciously and on purpose, stepping outside the limitations imposed by the opinions of others which lead us to doubt our true capacity, and claiming our greatness. From a higher perspective, we discover that happiness and contentment are not products of the things we accumulate, but of the person we become and the relationships we foster. To find our greatness and let it blossom, we don't need to dig deep as much as we need to rise up and view ourselves and life from a higher perspective.
