Towards the Virtuous University

Mehr zum Buch

The book critiques the prevailing focus on economic efficiency and competitive innovation in higher education, suggesting that these priorities often overshadow academic excellence and public service. It highlights a deficiency in intellectual leadership among senior management in universities and calls for academic professionals to take charge of their institutions' moral direction. Rather than reverting to elitist values, it advocates for a more equitable university system that avoids early student stratification and promotes inclusivity.
