Synopsis

This book examines the historical transition of university faculty from religious leaders devoted to Christ to business-minded employees dedicated to the ideals of efficiency. The author argues that the commercialization of higher education threatens academic freedom and the preservation of intellectual and moral standards. The book highlights the importance of restoring the power and influence of faculty in order to safeguard the true purpose of universities: the pursuit of knowledge and the development of well-rounded individuals. Its insights are crucial for anyone concerned about the future of higher education and its ability to foster critical thinking, creativity, and the search for truth.
