In this updated edition of A History of American Higher Education, John R. Thelin offers welcome perspective on the triumphs and crises of this highly influential sector in American life. Thelin's work has distinguished itself as the most wide-ranging and engaging account of the origins and evolution of America's institutions of higher learning. This edition brings the discussion of perennial hot-button issues such as big-time sports programs up to date and addresses such current areas of contention as the changing role of governing boards and the financial challenges posed by the economic downturn."--Provided by publisher. 001412067 650_0 $$aEducation, Higher$$zUnited States$$xHistory. 001412067 650_0 $$aUniversities and colleges$$zUnited States$$xHistory. 001412067 852__ $$bgen$$hLA226.T45 2019 001412067 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1412067$$pGLOBAL_SET 001412067 980__ $$aBOOK 001412067 980__ $$aBIB
