""Men Who Control Our Universities"" by Hubert Park Beck is a comprehensive study of the economic and social composition of governing boards of thirty leading American universities. The author examines the backgrounds and affiliations of the individuals who hold the power to make decisions that shape the direction of higher education in the United States. Beck's analysis reveals a pattern of domination by wealthy businessmen and politicians, with little representation from faculty or students. He argues that this lack of diversity in governing boards has significant implications for the direction of higher education, as the interests of these elite groups may not align with the needs and desires of the broader university community. This book provides a valuable insight into the power structures that shape American universities and raises important questions about the role of governance in higher education.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
