Higher Education in the English-speaking World
In 2002 the Université du Maine in Le Mans, France organized a conference on higher education in English-speaking countries. Some of the participants and a few others from various universities are here offering their thoughts about various aspects of higher education in Britain and the United States.
The issues of fees and political changes in higher education figure prominently in the papers about England and Wales rather than the whole of Britain. As far as the US is concerned, several articles deal with the history of universities and colleges and with a particular issue such as activism or feminism. Three case studies of specific institutions are presented here: Bob Jones University, Stanford and Berkeley in the 60's. One paper tackles the issue of literature on US campus while another one analyzes the impact of 9/11 and the right wing backlash that followed it upon American institutions of higher learning.
