Reflections on a Worn-Out Model

Frankel, Charles

Daedalus, 103, 4, 25-32, F 74

The passive state of higher education must be changed by active reconsideration of the old model of the university. Some considerations might be an orientation toward older students and interrupted schooling, reviewing the civic and "elitist" vs. "democratic" functions of higher education, the importance of teaching as opposed to research, and the autonomy of the university.
