Synopsis
The influence of movements promoting multiculturalism and political correctness on university campuses has become pervasive-affecting decisions on admissions and hiring, changes in the curriculum, and the implementation of codes governing speech. Yet these movements are not without their detractors: those who view recent developments as a threat to academic freedom. The contributors to The Imperiled Academy-nine prominent academics and specialists in history, government, philosophy, law, and public policy-assess the current state of American universities and their prospects for the future.
