Overview
With almost half a century of experience as student, faculty member, and dean, Abraham L. Gitlow offers new insight into and understanding of persistent problems in our universities and colleges. His analysis examines the value structure and mind-set of faculty and how this affects the self-governing institution of the university. Also unique to this field of study is the investigation of the professional school in the university and Gitlow's look at accreditation and fund-raising. Reflections on Higher Education will appeal to university and college administrators (present and future) and faculty, government officials dealing with universities and colleges, members of the general public with interest in higher education, and students and teachers of courses in Higher Education Administration.
