Declining by Degrees: Higher Education at Risk
- In Excellent Condition.
<p>Two decades ago <i>A Nation at Risk</i> sounded a national alarm on K-12 education. Now, an equally urgent alarm is being sounded for higher education in America. In <i>Declining by Degrees, </i>leading authors and educators such as Tom Wolfe, Jim Fallows, and Jay Mathews provide us with a valuable understanding of the serious issues facing colleges today, such as budget cuts, grade inflation, questionable recruitment strategies, and a major focus on Big Time Sports. Tied to the PBS documentary of the same name, <i>Declining by Degrees</i> creates a national discussion about the future of higher education and what we can do about it.</p>
