Are Global Universities Good for U.S. Colleges? – Room for Debate – NYTimes.com.
They have seven debaters with six different views. The best comment I have seen about this issue – or, almost any issue – is from Robert Maynard Hutchins.
“It is sad but true that when an institution determines to do something in order to get money it must lose its soul, .… I do not mean, of course, that universities do not need money and that they should not try to get it. I mean only that they should have an educational policy and then try to finance it, instead of letting financial accidents determine their educational policy.”
So the question for me is this.
Is the university doing this as part of its educational mission or, just to get money?
