Reflections on the Transition from Elite to Mass to Universal Access
Our mission, as others may see it
Decline of diversity, autonomy, and trust in British education
Different Emotional Reactions to Different Groups
The authors suggest that the traditional conception of prejudice--as a general attitude or evaluation--can problematically obscure the rich texturing of emotions that people feel toward different groups. Derived from a sociofunctional approach, the authors predicted that groups believed to pose qualitatively distinct threats to in-group resources or processes would evoke qualitatively distinct and functionally relevant emotional reactions. Partic…

Reflections on China and Carleton’s ethical investment policy
American higher education-Past, present and future
American higher education is unique in its size and diversity and in its openness to all who gain a high school diploma. This paper describes current trends in enrolments and finance in American colleges and universities, noting recent changes in the demography of the student body that have kept enrolments constant, despite dwindling traditional college-age cohorts. The sources of the unique characteristics of American higher education lie in its…
L'enseignement supérieur aux États-Unis et au Royaume-Uni. Perspectives comparatives
Comparant le système universitaire américain avec le système universitaire britannique qui à ses origines lui avait servi de modèle, l'auteur s'interroge sur ce qui peut justifier les divergences entre ces deux systèmes. Les réponses qu'il avance se refusent à n'envisager qu'un type de justification et cherchent au contraire à multiplier les facteurs explicatifs en considérant les politiques publiques, les stratégies des établissements, les compo…

The Second Transformation of American Secondary Education
Small Businessmen, Political Tolerance, and Support for McCarthy
A study done in Bennington, Vermont, in 1954 found that McCarthy received disproportionately strong support from small businessmen and relatively little support from salaried employees with the same education. By contrast, occupation was found to have little bearing on political tolerance, as compared with the stong relationship between political tolerance, and educational achievement. A comparison of McCarthy's popular support in 1954 with that …

The Democratization of Higher Education in America
American higher education is currently undergoing an enormous and rapid expansion. Between 1939 and 1961 the number of students enrolled in colleges and universities and earning credits toward degrees rose from about 1.3 million to over 3.9 million (1). This three-fold increase has resulted almost completely from increasing rates of enrollment, since the population of college age-that is, the 18 to 21 year olds-was almost exactly as large in 1939…

Public Policy Schools Attuned to Modern Complexities
British Academics and the Professorship
Attitudes towards the power and status of the professorship are analysed among a national sample of university teachers in Britain. Discontent with both power ('professorial oligarchy') and status (the career expectation of a chair) are widespread and closely correlated. But political attitudes are more closely aligned to attitudes towards professorial power than towards professorial status. Cosmopolitanism as opposed to localism is correlated wi…
