His speeches, renowned for their intelligence, humanity, wit, and courage, confront head-on the most pressing concerns facing our nation's universities. From affirmative action and multiculturalism to free speech, politics, public service, and government regulation, Casper addresses the controversial issues currently debated on college campuses and in our highest courts. With insight and candor, each chapter explores the context of these challenges to higher education and provides Casper's stirring orations delivered in response. In addressing these vital concerns, Casper outlines the freedoms that a university must encourage and defend in the ongoing pursuit of knowledge.Education, HigherPhilosophyEducation, HigherAims and objectivesAcademic freedomEducation, HigherPhilosophy.Education, HigherAims and objectives.Academic freedom.378.001 |2 23EDU015000EDU042000bisacshCasper Gerhard503726Shannon Sonia1711617MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910820637603321The winds of freedom4103075UNINA
