Ingram, president, Association of Governing Boards of Universities and Colleges "At a time when many critics of higher education lament the separation of competence and conscience in collegiate education, Young's treatment on the values mission of higher education, is a welcome addition to the literature, a reminder that what we know is always servant to what we believe." --E.

Reseña del editor:

No Neutral Ground will provoke some and bring praise from others. Written with passion and a personal sense of mission, this book offers something to everyone who cares about institutional values and ethical standards. - Richard T. Ingram, president, Association of Governing Boards of Universities and Colleges. A provocative book that explores seven timeless values of higher education service, truth, freedom, equality, individuation, justice, and community and shows how higher education administrators, faculty, and trustees can incorporate these values into their own practice and transmit them to students and the community at large.
