These six contributions maintain that only fundamental changes will solve the endemic problems that plague colleges and universities. The authors focus on systems and structures, rather than on the leadership of particular individuals. They offer plans for generating internal responses to external demands and constrictions, and call for increased communication and involvement with society, decentralized and localized governance, and integration and coordination within the academy.
