An all-star cast of philosophical thinkers about higher education,
more than half women, offers new essays exploring major ethical
problems facing American higher education today. Among the crucial
topics discussed are free speech on campus, challenges to the
tenure system, the proliferation of adjunct faculty, historical
injustices, affirmative action, admission policies, opportunities
for applicants from the working-class, faculty and administrative
responsibilities, student life, threats to privacy, treatment of
those with disabilities, the impact of technology on teaching and
learning, curricular controversies, the impact of unions,
philanthropy, sports and intercollegiate athletics, and the aims of
liberal education. The authors are leading researchers and
teachers, many with extensive administrative experience, and they
are members of the faculties at public and private institutions
throughout the country. The essays are jargon-free and address the
most pressing problems for higher education, weigh alternative
policies, and assess future prospects for overcoming present
challenges. Philosopher, scholar, teacher, and novelist Rebecca
Newberger Goldstein provides a foreword to this unique collection.
