Description
This book exposes prevalent myths about higher education that inhibit administrators and faculty from realistically dealing with changing conditions and that reinforce an elitist conception of the function of higher education in society. The book shows how these assumptions and beliefs can be reshaped to help higher education leaders and their institutions meet the challenges presented by an aging population, ethnic and racial diversity, and demands for a more educated and skilled workforce.
