From rising tuition costs to the need to improve and welcome diversity, activists signal a continued restlessness among the nation’s collegiate youth over various issues, expressing their views with a vigor comparable to most periods in American history.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e The purpose of this work is to dispel the myths that today's activists are either apathetic or “radicals” determined on disrupting the “establishment.” It's also a guide to help higher education practitioners better understand the needs, rights, and responsibilities of campus activists. And, it will help readers understand the best paths to not only allowing student voice, but helping direct that voice toward peaceful and constructive expression.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e This is the 167th volume of the Jossey-Bass quarterly report series \u003cb\u003eNew Directions for Higher Education\u003c\/b\u003e. Addressed to presidents, vice presidents, deans, and other higher education decision makers on all kinds of campuses, it provides timely information and authoritative advice about major issues and administrative problems confronting every institution.","brand":"Wiley","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47113809101040,"sku":"9781118966976","price":29.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781118966976_p0.jpg?v=1763696105","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781118966976","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
