The Making of the University of Michigan.
It was written in 1992 for the 175th anniversary, but provides a pretty cool look back into student life and the founding of the University. It does get a bit dense at times talking about which faculty were hired each year (back when it was a small staff), but overall I found it absolutely fascinating.
Like the other commenter said, intro to algorithms by CLRS is a great one. However, if you're trying to do interview prep I highly recommend Cracking the Coding Interview. It has tons of fantastic coding questions with detailed solutions. Big 4 companies use problems directly from that book sometimes.
Our athletic department is not a source of profit for the school either directly, or indirectly through alumni, see the following for discussion and references:
http://www.amazon.com/Beer-Circus-Crippling-Undergraduate-Education/dp/0805068112
http://www.amazon.com/Intercollegiate-Athletics-American-University-Perspective/dp/0472089439
the latter written by former president of U of M, James Duderstadt. This is an incredibly widespread myth which is extremely pernicious in its ability to confuse and misdirect. Only a handful of athletic departments in the country can occasionally make a profit, and this is only after the significant help with overheads from their University (grounds, maintenance, IT support, various staff) and the often directly shady or illegal bookkeeping going on. None of those schools which make a profit from their athletic department do so consistently.
As to your other points, see Beer and Circus above for a thorough destruction of all of those less measurable points. To simplify grossly: the spirit and "rounding" you refer to are blatantly antithetical to the school's primary missions of education, scholarship, and service.
In true reddit fashion, stop being a fucking sheep and look around occasionally.
I have one that you can buy for cheap if you want the book. Dm me if you’re interested
Here’s a link to the book: Calculus: Single Variable, 7e WileyPLUS Registration Card + Loose-leaf Print Companion https://www.amazon.com/dp/1119379334/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_tai_jRrlDbNKR20SK
If you want a physical copy (and get it signed by Prof. Greenwood), Amazon has them for relatively cheap as a Dover edition.
If you want a pdf, the Russian Lib Gen has one.
He is the only instructor for the class. He usually teaches it only in the fall, but the class is currently running (W16) because he was on a book tour for Endzone during F15.
If you can get a spot on the waitlist, you can get into the class. Bacon drops anyone who does not attend on the first day. If you show up that day and keep showing up, you'll eventually get a seat. (When I took the class, I met a freshman who got in by doing just that.)
Here ya go.
