Diversity and Distrust by Stephen MacEdo (Paperback - Harvard Univ Pr)
Stephen Macedo believes that, when it comes to education policy in the United States and other culturally diverse democracies, diversity should often, but not always, be highly valued. We must remember, he insists, that many forms of social and religious diversity are at odds with basic commitments to liberty, equality, and civic flourishing.

Academic Keywords by Cary Nelson (Paperback - Routledge)

Know what academic freedom is? Or what it's come to mean? What's affirmative about affirmative action these days? Think you're up on the problem of sexual harassment on campus? Or know how much the university depends on part-time faculty?

Academic Keywords is a witty, informed, and sometimes merciless assessment of today's campus, an increasingly corporatized institution that may have bitten off more than its administration is ready to chew. Cary Nelson and Steve Watt use the format of a dictionary to present stories and reflections on some of the most pressing issues affecting higher education in America. From the haphazard treatment of graduate students to the use and abuse of faculty (as well as abuses commited by faculty), Nelson and Watt present a compelling and, at times, enraging report on the state of the campus.

If you're working for a university, studying at one, or simply interested in what's wrong with American education, you won't want to miss Academic Keywords.
