TIAA Institute.https://hdl.handle.net/1805/29251The TIAA Institute commissioned two papers to address the question of how to demonstrate higher education’s contribution to the public good. Genevieve Shaker, editor of a book on faculty and the public good, and William Plater, an emeritus provost, explore higher education’s institutional responsibility to deliver civic value.
