My Life in Higher Education

By Charles Demotte

In the memoir, My Life in Higher Education, Charles DeMotte reflects with wit and honesty on his extensive career in academia. Viewing his experiences from different angles, Professor DeMotte brings to light his multi-faceted background as a student, researcher, and teacher. He also comments on changes in the academic environment which he has witnessed over the years, and to its possible direction.

Dr. DeMotte thinks that a fundamental problem in society, reflected in higher education, is the failure to think critically, which has underscored his teaching mission. While Dr. DeMotte recognizes the impact that AI and information technology is having and will have on higher education, he calls for a measured approach to this transformation. He also thinks that education should promote values, such as right human relations, to help students become better citizens.
