The Still Divided Academy : Rowman & Littlefield Publishers : 9781442208063 : 1442208066 : 16 Jan 2011 : The Still Divided Academy examines the inner workings of the academic community by addressing a broad range of issues including academic politics, tenure, perceived and real political imbalance, academic freedom, and diversity. Administrators, professors, and students have very different priorities, values, and expectations and, therefore, often have conflicting opinions on these issues. Drawing on data from a specially commissioned public-opinion survey as well as other recent research, Rothman, Kelly-Woessner, and Woessner create an incredibly readable presentation of the similarities and the differences between those running our universities and those attending them. The authors manage to remain impressively neutral; instead, they give us a fuller perspective on the people on our college campuses.
