This book examines the role of compassion in refiguring the
university. Plotting a reimagining of the university through care,
other-regard, and a commitment to act in response to the suffering
of others, the author draws on various humanities disciplines to
illuminate the potential of compassion in the campus. The book asks
how the sector can reclaim the university from the tides of
neoliberalism, inequalities and increased workloads, and which
moral principles and competencies would need to be championed and
instilled to build inclusive citizenship and positive connection
with others. A value that is too scarcely taught, experienced, or
advocated in contexts of higher education, compassion is reframed
as an essential pillar of the university and a means to an
epistemically just campus and curricula.
