Academic Strategy: The Management Revolution in American Higher Education Book

One of the more comical works of higher education scholarship from the 1970s and 1980s...George Keller was a respected scholar in his day, but not much longer afterward. He made significant contributions to faculty's sense of ruling class solidarity -- in opposition to both American democracy and students' academic freedom. But, his wildly inaccurate statistical projections about college enrollments in the 1980s clipped his wings soon after publishing the (above titled) monstrosity of higher education scholarship. He was washed up by the early 1990s after college enrollments far exceeded his pessimistic predictions. The only intellectual merit of his work(s) - that I read as research for my book, _Honors of Inequality_, stems from his tragic appeal to academics of the world to unite. His depraved appeal to faculty self-interest, however, resonated with only a small swath of disillusioned professors and academics at the end of the twentieth century.
