We don't have to look very far to confront issues-and
scandals-regarding the state of American universities and colleges.
There are many holes in the moral fabric of these institutions. An
ethical inquiry is in order; with diverse voices inside academia
exposing conflicts and complications while proposing practical
responses to repair and re-stabilize higher education as an
institution. Wanda Teays and Alison Dundes Renteln present a
collection of sixteen original essays tackling the most vital
issues facing universities. An impressive team of highly regarded
philosophers, ethicists, and legal scholars to address the timely
concerns, such as Fraud & misrepresentation in student
applications, Bribery of college officials, Misuse of family
connections, Age discrimination, Inflated resumes, Exploitation of
adjuncts and teaching assistants, Sexual assault and misconduct,
Coaches involved in recruiting violations, Ties to corporations
and/or big pharmaceutical companies, Issues in fundraising, and
Bias in hiring & tenure decisions. This book will be especially
helpful as either a primary or supplementary text in Applied
Ethics, Contemporary Moral Problems, Business Ethics, Public
Policy, Philosophy of Education, Law and Education, and Social
Justice. It would also serve as a valuable resource for workshops
and institutes for educational administrators and professional
development for educators.
