We're Smothering Our Universities (The Plight of Higher Education in the United States)

By Philip Carlton Williams

Want to know the real reasons for the escalation in tuition and fees at colleges and universities across the United States? Want to know why campus officials seem so reluctant to speak openly, while these and other controversial issues cry out for answers?In this book--We're Smothering Our Universities--Dr. Williams provides evidence that our nation's system of higher education, a national treasure that was once the envy of the world, is now suffering a slow, suffocating death. Not due to the actions of just a single culprit, but through the collective actions of many. We the People are allowing powerful individuals and organizations, including our elected representatives, to impose a collection of expensive unfunded mandates and to engage in corrupt practices that our university officials are powerless to combat without our help. It's time we learned the truth about what's going on behind the scenes. We need to understand the forces that are causing tuition to rise and campus environments to coagulate, stifling the creativity and innovation that once fueled our nation's spirit.We're Smothering Our Universities is a must read for those of us who care enough to make a difference.
