Highly acclaimed and incorporating cutting-edge research, American Higher Education in the Twenty-First Century is now more useful and engaging than ever.
No other book covers such wide-ranging issues under the broader theme of Higher education\'s relationship to society.
Reflecting on the implications of ethnic and socioEconomic diversity within Higher education, the book also grapples with growing concerns about the responsiveness and future of the academy.
Three entirely new chapters cover broad-access colleges, race and racism, and organized Social movements.
Each chapter has been rewritten to address major recent issues in Higher education, including the COVID-19 pandemic, the movement for racial justice, and turmoil in the for-profit sector.
