Paying special attention to the role played by professors in solidifying status-quo arrangements, Nelsen makes the strange familiar for those outside the university bureaucracy and the familiar strange for those whose participation in university settings is a routine part of everyday life."--Provided by publisher.Education, HigherUniversities and collegesSociological aspectsEducation, Higher.Universities and collegesSociological aspects.378Nelsen Randle W.1943-1676580MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910825444803321Degrees of failure4042875UNINA
