Colleges at the crossroads : taking sides on contested issues. Counterpoints ; V
Ein tadelloses Exemplar. - Focusing on crucial issues in higher education, this book challenges readers to go beyond taken-for-granted assumptions about Americas colleges and universities and instead critically examine important questions facing them in todays troubled world. Each chapter presents divergent perspectives, that is, "pro" and "con" views, in the hope of stimulating reasoned dialogue among students, faculty, administrators, and the public at large. Readers will explore how internal factors in the academic community often interact with external social, economic, and political influences to produce conflictual results. They will see that academe is hardly value-neutral and inevitably political.
