These essays emerge from a Lilly-funded seminar and conference on the history of Catholic higher education in America, held at Saint Louis University in 1996-1997. Each essay treats a specific aspect of the development of Catholic higher education, most on the period 1960-1990.
Comparing modern Catholic higher education in the US to an acculturated immigrant with an identity crisis, the introduction points out that the critical concerns expressed in these nine conference and seminar papers pair tensions with possibilities about the credibility, roles, and reform of Church-sponsored education in a deliberative democracy. One essay presents models of Protestant colleges' response to calls for change in the 1960s. Lacks an index. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)

The subtitle sums up what he's trying to do. I'm not a Catholic; Derrick is, so we have some major points of disagreement, although mostly in the last couple chapters, which I see as less important than Derrick probably would.
A terrific, conversational book on what education is and should be, and how the ideal college education should be constructed.
