Towards the Virtuous University

Meer over het boek

The book critiques the prevailing focus on economic efficiency and entrepreneurialism in higher education, suggesting that such priorities undermine academic excellence and public service. It highlights a deficiency in intellectual leadership among senior management and calls for academic professionals to take charge of their institutions' moral responsibilities. Rather than reverting to elitist ideals, it advocates for a more equitable university system that avoids early differentiation of students into varied institutional paths.
