University students are falling behind their international peers in attainment, while suffering from unprecedented student debt. For over a decade, the realm of American higher education has been wracked with self-doubt and mutual recrimination, with no clear solutions on the horizon. How did this happen? In this stunning new book, Christopher Newfield offers readers an in-depth analysis of the "great mistake" that led to the cycle of decline and dissolution, a mistake that impacts every public college and university in America. What might occur, he asserts, is no less than locked-in economic inequality and the fall of the middle class. In The Great Mistake, Newfield asks how we can fix higher education, given the damage done by private-sector models. The current accepted wisdom-that to succeed, universities should be more like businesses-is dead wrong. 000771921 650_0 $$aPublic universities and colleges$$zUnited States$$xFinance. 000771921 650_0 $$aEducation, Higher$$xAims and objectives$$zUnited States. 000771921 650_0 $$aHigher education and state$$zUnited States. 000771921 650_0 $$aPrivatization in education$$zUnited States. 000771921 830_0 $$aCritical university studies. 000771921 85200 $$bgen$$hLB2342$$i.N49$$i2016 000771921 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:771921$$pGLOBAL_SET 000771921 980__ $$aBIB 000771921 980__ $$aBOOK
