What sorts of personal and professional experiences should people in their twenties prioritize? What should recent graduates expect from life and careers beyond the university?

Amidst this graduation season, AEI’s Charles Murray joins the Academic Programs team to discuss his book "The Curmudgeon's Guide to Getting Ahead: Dos and Don'ts of Right Behavior, Tough Thinking, Clear Writing, and Living a Good Life." From leaving home and trying out different jobs, to taking the clichés about marriage and happiness seriously, Murray offers advice on the pursuit of both a successful career and a happy life.

This episode of The Campus Exchange is Part 1 of a two-part series for college students and young professionals. We’ll continue exploring education, careers, and achievement in Part 2, so be sure to tune in!
