内容説明
For much of the twentieth century, political support for public funding of higher education was widespread in the United States. Liberals supported public investment because it encouraged social equity; conservatives did so because it promoted economic development. Recently the politics of higher education have become much more contentious. Waste-fighting conservatives advocate deep cuts in public financing; liberals want to expand enrollment and increase diversity. At the same time, public universities have embraced greater degrees of privatization while federal aid for students now emphasizes middle-class affordability over universal access. Public Funding of Higher Education brings together scholars and practitioners to address the complexities of this new climate and the impact of recent trends on policy and on political advocacy at the federal, state, and institutional level. By rethinking traditional rationales for public financing and offering alternatives, this volume will be useful to policymakers, administrators, faculty, students, and researchers struggling with this difficult practical dynamic.

内容説明
Much of the twentieth century saw broad political support for public funding of American higher education. Liberals supported public investment because it encouraged social equity, conservatives because it promoted economic development. Recently, however, the politics of higher education have become more contentious. Conservatives advocate deep cuts in public financing; liberals want to expand enrollment and increase diversity. Some public universities have embraced privatization, while federal aid for students increasingly emphasizes middle-class affordability over universal access. In Public Funding of Higher Education, scholars and practitioners address the complexities of this new climate and its impact on policy and political advocacy at the federal, state, and institutional levels. Rethinking traditional rationales for public financing, contributors to this volume offer alternatives for policymakers, administrators, faculty, students, and researchers struggling with this difficult practical dynamic.
