There’ve been some funny “For Dummies” titles to have come out. Washington DC for Dummies. Dungeons & Dragons for Dummies (I love D&D, by the way…). The most cringe worthy book like this was actually a different series: The Complete Idiot’s Guide to Enhancing Self-Esteem. Ouch.
But we just got in Veterans Benefits for Dummies. I can hear people saying “OH NO THEY DIDN’T!” from here. Of course, it is just a matter of the series’s naming convention, and the series is pretty beneficial in general. Part of my job is programming and I’m proud to have PHP & MySQL for Dummies on my personal bookshelf. Handy stuff! And frankly, what could be more confusing than government paper work? If anything, I think having a guide like this is quite the beneficial resource for our veterans (students and staff) to make sure they’re getting every last benefit available to them for serving this country.
