This book examines the role of labor organizations, teachers' agencies, and other professional services that supplied American colleges and universities with professors and other staff throughout history. It explores the many forces and factors that drove the development of these organizations, from economic to pedagogical. The author argues that the rise of these intermediaries was key in the development of academic freedom and the professionalization of college teaching in the United States, shaping the very landscape of higher education up to the present day.
