Surveys the changing landscape of American higher education, from academic freedom to virtual universities, from campus crime to Pell Grants, from the Student Privacy Act to student diversity. In the years following World War II, college and university enrollment doubled, students revolted, faculty unionized, and community colleges evolved. Tuition and technology soared, as did the number of first-generation, minority, and women students. These changes radically transformed the American system of postsecondary education. Today, that system is in trouble. Its aging professoriate prepares for retirement, but low academic salaries can no longer attract the best minds to replace them. A flood of corporate dollars funds commercial research, but money for basic research—the seedbed of American scientific preeminence—has dried up. Colleges and universities also face heated competition with for-profit education providers for students, faculty, and external financial support, along with the costs of providing remedial education to growing numbers of students who are unprepared for postsecondary education. Higher Education in the United States provides a comprehensive analysis of these issues and others that scholars and practitioners of higher education study, discuss, and grapple with on a daily basis.
Facilities management has been one of the fastest growing professional disciplines for some years, both in terms of volume and diversity of commercial activity. However, a widely accepted and implemented body of knowledge is still lacking. This book contributes to that knowledge building by taking models and ideas from a wide range of sources and linking them to extensive case study material drawn from practising facilities managers. The text is divided into three parts: · Current practice is illustrated, with a second chapter looking at enhancing services · Key facilities management issues are considered:user needs evaluation, outsourcing and computer-based information systems · Extensive advice is provided on managing people through change and on decision making The Second Edition features new material on user needs, briefing and procurement strategy, together with new public sector case studies. ‘This high quality book provides a comprehensive approach to the range of issues [and] the combination of case studies with theoretical perspectives and research has a strong practical emphasis’ Chartered Surveyor Monthly 'A thorough and very well researched book...as a student text it is first class' Construction Manager
