HIGHER EDUCATION FOR PUBLIC GOOD
This collection of essays, emerging from dialogues within the National Forum on Higher Education for the Public Good, examines how universities can revitalize their role as civic institutions serving societal needs. It explores themes like governance, curriculum, faculty roles, leadership, and cross-sector partnerships. The contributors argue that higher education must shift away from market-driven models, embrace engaged scholarship and service-learning, and realign institutional structures to foster democratic citizenship and social responsibility. The volume ultimately calls for a renewed 'social charter' between higher education and society, emphasizing accountability, inclusion, and collaborative leadership
