Description
"Is the university a dinosaur: huge, lumbering, endearing in its own way, yet unsuited to today's world? Is it a thing of the past, unnecessary in an age of the Internet and on-line learning? In a book likely to provoke people who are loyal to the ideal of the university as well as those who foresee its demise, Frank H. T. Rhodes acknowledges that the university is an imperfect institution but argues that it plays an essential role in modern society. In the process, he articulates strong opinions on a range of difficult issues." "The Creation of the Future is no defense or promotion of the status quo. Focusing on American research universities, Rhodes makes the case that they are an irreplaceable treasure, whose value must be preserved through judicious renewal and reform, beginning with a rededication to teaching as a moral vocation."--BOOK JACKET.
