The Hollow Men: A Cautionary Tale.
Fruman, Norman
College Teaching, v39 n4 p145-48 Fall 1991
A review of Charles Sykes' book "The Hollow Men: Politics and Corruption in Higher Education" focuses on the portion that chronicles the political history of Dartmouth College (New Hampshire) from 1769. It is found to be a comprehensive analysis of the college's decline resulting from a "radically politicized and self-regarding" faculty. (MSE)
