"The American college and university today must assess what difference scholarship makes to teaching and what teaching means to scholarship. Reaffirming Higher Education asks who teaches, what, to whom, and why." "The authors maintain that what matters in higher learning is learning, while denying that scholarship detracts from teaching." "The authors outline reform and renewal for both the institutional and personal dimensions of higher learning that would encompass the ideal of the academic ethic."--Jacket.
