When former Indiana governor Mitch Daniels was named Purdue
University's twelfth president, he became one of a small handful of
nationally renowned figures to lead an institution of higher
education. In an era when university presidents had largely
abandoned the role of public intellectual, Daniels immediately
captured broad attention for his willingness to take a thoughtful
stand on America's most pressing challenges—in academia and far
beyond.Boiler Up: A University President in the Public Square
offers readers a fascinating compendium of commencement addresses,
published columns, and transcripts of speeches and hosted events
spanning ten years of insights and insightful interactions that put
Mitch Daniels front and center among American thought leaders.
Throughout the book, Daniels's sharp intellect, incisive analysis,
and delightful sense of humor reign supreme. Via embedded QR codes,
readers can "attend" recorded content, including evenings with
Condoleezza Rice, Garry Kasparov, Walter Isaacson, and other
fascinating people. Whether the reader seeks lessons on leadership
or immersion in engaging ideas, Boiler Up is a tour de force of
transformative thinking.
