When Education is a Corporate Agenda.
McMurtry, John
Canadian Social Studies, v32 n4 p114 Sum 1998
Criticizes the University of Toronto for its links to businesses deemed unsavory by the author. Places these academic-corporate links within a general framework of integration between Canada's leading educational and business institutions. Questions an educational system that appears to the author to have wealth generation as its highest goal. (DSK)
