Extraordinary Transformation is building a university where academic excellence can flourish. Many business leaders have repeatedly asked Nido Qubein to chronicle how a small college in North Carolina rose to national attention and grew substantially in spite of the Great Recession of 2008 and the coronavirus in 2020. It describes how High Point University innovatively and courageously grew in size, academic stature, and fiscal strength.
