Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book argues for increased public funding for advanced education in the United States, to complement the private funding on which colleges and universities have historically relied. The author traces the history of higher education in the US, showing how the prevailing system has led to a proliferation of small, sectarian colleges with limited resources. This system contrasts with Germany, where a strong tradition of public funding has produced world-class universities at the forefront of research and scholarship. The author advocates for a move away from the sectarian model and towards a more centralized, publicly funded system that can provide access to high-quality advanced education for all Americans. The book's insights are significant because they challenge the conventional wisdom that higher education should be left to the private sector, and offer a compelling case for the role of government in ensuring that all citizens have the opportunity to pursue their intellectual potential.
