A stellar ensemble of esteemed philosophical minds, comprising more than half women, presents a fresh collection of essays delving into profound ethical dilemmas confronting American higher education today. Among the critical subjects explored are the freedoms of speech on campus, the complexities of the tenure system, the rise of adjunct faculty members, historical injustices, affirmative action policies, admission criteria, prospects for applicants from working-class backgrounds, the responsibilities of faculty and administrators, the student experience, safeguarding privacy, addressing the needs of individuals with disabilities, the transformative effects of technology on teaching and learning, curricular controversies, the influence of unions, philanthropy, sports, and intercollegiate athletics, and the objectives of liberal education. The authors, distinguished scholars and accomplished educators, many with extensive administrative backgrounds, hail from the faculties of public and private institutions across the nation. These essays, devoid of jargon, address the most pressing concerns facing higher education, present alternative policies, and assess the potential for overcoming current challenges. Rebecca Newberger Goldstein, a philosopher, scholar, teacher, and novelist, contributes a foreword to this exceptional compilation.
