_aTwo decades ago A Nation at Risk sounded a national alarm on K-12 education. Now, an equally urgent alarm is being sounded for higher education in America. In Declining by Degrees, 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, Declining by Degrees creates a national discussion about the future of higher education and what we can do about it. _cAMAZON _uhttps://www.amazon.com/Declining-Degrees-Higher-Education-Risk/dp/1403973164/ref=sr_1_1?crid=1XM5HDORZXFK6&keywords=9781403973160&qid=1678391811&sprefix=9%2Caps%2C146&sr=8-1 |
