Download or read book Academia's Golden Age written by Richard M. Freeland and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 1992-04-23 with total page 545 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the evolution of American universities during the years following World War II. Emphasizing the importance of change at the campus level, the book combines a general consideration of national trends with a close study of eight diverse universities in Massachusetts. The eight are Harvard, M.I.T., Tufts, Brandeis, Boston University, Boston College, Northeastern and the University of Massachusetts. Broad analytic chapters examine major developments like expansion, the rise of graduate education and research, the professionalization of the faculty, and the decline of general education. These chapters also review criticisms of academia that arose in the late 1960s and the fate of various reform proposals during the 1970s. Additional chapters focus on the eight campuses to illustrate the forces that drove different kinds of institutions--research universities, college-centered universities, urban private universities and public universities--in responding to the circumstances of the postwar years.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the first decades following World War II this nation and its system of higher education underwent dramatic, unprecedented change and growth. New colleges and universities sprouted across the landscape, especially during the prosperous and conflicted 1960s. Most of this growth was in public higher education as states rushed to meet the need for greater capacity and to satisfy the emerging ideal of universal access to higher education. UMass Dartmouth was formed in the context of these national trends, but with a significant difference: this University was among the few created through a merger of existing institutions. Public higher education in Massachusetts has often faced an uphill battle for support and recognition. Operating in the shadow of a small handful of genuinely elite private institutions, public higher education in the State has long been a low-priority, erratically-funded activity. As such, this book, while primarily an institutional history of UMass Dartmouth, deals also with the key elements in a public dialogue that continues to shape this, and other institutions operating in the public sphere in Massachusetts. One of its underlying assumptions is that the status and health of public institutions--in this case, public higher education--reflect the state of the social contract by which individuals relate to the "common wealth."

This book was released on 2015-06-04 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The social upheaval of the 1960s ushered in lasting change across the country, prompted, in part, by major civil rights and anti-poverty legislation, a record number of students seeking college degrees, and the expansion of land-grant public universities into urban centers. Guided by an idealism and ambition characteristic of the time, the University of Massachusetts Boston held its first classes in 1965. In a city that prided itself on being the birthplace of American public education but remained the exclusive preserve of private universities, UMass Boston's founders set their sights on creating "a great public urban university" that would "stand with the city" and provide students of all ethnicities, ages, and social classes with opportunities "equal to the best." Richly illustrated and enlivened by reminiscences and profiles, UMass Boston at 50 tells the remarkable coming-of-age story of an institution that has consistently defied the odds, risen to the occasion, and served tens of thousands of students, from Vietnam veterans to students with roots in more than 150 countries. The university that opened in a half-renovated gas company building in downtown Boston now enjoys a reputation for wide-ranging, innovative research and service and holds steadfastly to its mission and its teaching soul. UMass Boston at 50 also tells of the university's ambitious plans to become the preeminent student-centered urban public university of the twenty-first century.

Download or read book The Rise of the High School in Massachusetts written by Alexander James Inglis and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-11 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Rise of the High School in Massachusetts: Teachers College, Columbia University Contributions to Educations, No; 45 The high school in Massachusetts had its beginning in the third decade of the nineteenth century. Within that period fall the estab lishment of the English Classical (high) School of Boston in 1821, the founding of the Boston High School for Girls in 1826, and the passage of the act in 1827 which formed the basis of all subsequent legislation affecting the high school in Massachusetts. In a wider sense, however, we must trace the origin of the Massachusetts high school and secondary education in the nine teenth century back to an earlier period, and, to gain a conception of the meaning and extent of the change then brought about, we must examine the conditions prior to the nineteenth century and antecedent to the beginning of the high school movement proper. Such an examination will involve some consideration of the colonial Latin grammar school and of the academies which prae tically dominated secondary education at the beginning of the nineteenth century, together with a consideration of the public school system in general. N o exhaustive treatment of these movements can be attempted here, but sufficient attention must be given to them to afford a knowledge of the situation immedi ately preceding the period with which this discussion is concerned.
