Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is a compilation of articles and essays by the author exploring the nature of university education in America. The author examines the state of undergraduate education today, being mindful of our cultural history and how our universities came to be what they are today, and he discusses where he feels universities must go in order to keep up with the times and the demands of the present day. From a discussion of athletics to scientific research to alumni donations, this book covers many aspects of the modern American university. The author argues that universities must be an intellectual space insulated from outside forces and free from political correctness and constraints that would limit freedom of thought and intellectual exploration. He also encourages faculty to constantly re-evaluate their teaching methods to maximize the potential in their students. This book is provocative and will surely spark thoughtful discussion about the role of higher education in our society.
