Features complete profiles of the nation's 249 most-toured schools. It's easy these days to find out about college campuses on the Internet, but nothing beats hitting the road and seeing a campus with one's own eyes: sizing up the dorms, eating a meal in the cafeteria, sitting in on a class, checking out the neighborhood, and getting a true-to-life preview of the next four years. This new edition of Visiting College Campuses is the one-stop source for plotting a college journey, whether it's by plane, train, or automobile. The Princeton Review's profiles of the 249 most-toured campuses include: - Maps and precise directions to get there by any mode of transportation - Nearby hotels, motels, B&Bs, and resorts for every budget - The best and worst times to visit each campus - Dates and times when campus tours are available - How to arrange an overnight stay in a dormitory - Information on meeting professors, admissions officers, and coaches Visiting College Campuses also gives readers mileage charts by state and region, so they'll know exactly how far those targeted schools are from one another and how many campuses can be covered each day of the trip. Month-by-month academic calendars let readers know when school is in session, so they won't show up to find an empty campus. Customized trips help to avoid hassles and disappointments, and allow prospective students to get the most out of their time.
Shifting faculty roles in a changing landscape Ernest L. Boyer's landmark book Scholarship Reconsidered: Priorities of the Professoriate challenged the publish-or-perish status quo that dominated the academic landscape for generations. His powerful and enduring argument for a new approach to faculty roles and rewards continues to play a significant part of the national conversation on scholarship in the academy. Though steeped in tradition, the role of faculty in the academic world has shifted significantly in recent decades. The rise of the non-tenure-track class of professors is well documented. If the historic rule of promotion and tenure is waning, what role can scholarship play in a fragmented, unbundled academy? Boyer offers a still much-needed approach. He calls for a broadened view of scholarship, audaciously refocusing its gaze from the tenure file and to a wider community. This expanded edition offers, in addition to the original text, a critical introduction that explores the impact of Boyer's views, a call to action for applying Boyer's message to the changing nature of faculty work, and a discussion guide to help readers start a new conversation about how Scholarship Reconsidered applies today.
