About Higher education

When a practical joke gets him kicked out of school, Rick Luban thinks he has nowhere to go. Instead, he gets a second chance--and a life of adventure--when he signs up for a career in asteroid mining. The mining company has its own system of turning boys into men, the "higher education" of the title.
