Download Mental Health Crisis in Higher Education Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
The COVID-19 pandemic brought about a sudden transition from traditional face-to-face instruction to online and blended learning. The repercussions of this seismic change have left an indelible mark on students, particularly those thrust into the challenging realm of fully engaging in online learning during this tumultuous period. As we navigate the delicate landscape of higher education post-pandemic, a critical gap in scholarly literature becomes glaringly apparent; there is a scarcity of focused works addressing the nuanced well-being of students in this new academic reality. Mental Health Crisis in Higher Education is a groundbreaking book that boldly steps into this void, offering a comprehensive and meticulously researched examination of the challenges faced by students transitioning from secondary to higher education amid the pandemic. By delving into stressors, coping mechanisms, and the intricate web of factors influencing emotional, psychological, and physical well-being, the book is an invaluable resource for academics, researchers, and institutions seeking to understand and address the multifaceted dimensions of student well-being.

Download Lloyd Gaines and the Fight to End Segregation Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
Winner, 2017 Missouri Conference on History Book Award In 1936, Lloyd Gaines’s application to the University of Missouri law school was denied based on his race. Gaines and the NAACP challenged the university’s decision. Missouri ex rel. Gaines v. Canada (1938) was the first in a long line of decisions by the U.S. Supreme Court regarding race, higher education, and equal opportunity. The court case drew national headlines, and the NAACP moved Gaines to Chicago after he received death threats. Before he could attend law school, he vanished. This is the first book to focus entirely on the Gaines case and the vital role played by the NAACP and its lawyers—including Charles Houston, known as “the man who killed Jim Crow”—who advanced a concerted strategy to produce political change. Horner and Endersby also discuss the African American newspaper journalists and editors who mobilized popular support for the NAACP’s strategy. This book uncovers an important step toward the broad acceptance of racial segregation as inherently unequal. This is the inaugural volume in the series Studies in Constitutional Democracy, edited by Justin Dyer and Jeffrey Pasley of the Kinder Institute on Constitutional Democracy.

Download The University in Dissent Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
The rise of corporatism in the North American University was charted by Bill Readings in the mid nineteen-nineties in his book The University in Ruins. The intervening years have seen the corporate university grow and extend to the point where its evolution into a large business corporation is seemingly complete. Rolfe’s book examines the factors contributing to the transformation of the university from a site of culture and knowledge to what might be termed an ‘information factory’, and explores strategies for how, in Readings’ words, members of the academic community might continue to ‘dwell in the ruins of the university’ in a productive and authentic way. Drawing on the work of critics and philosophers such as Barthes, Derrida, Lyotard and Deleuze, The University in Dissent suggests that this can only be achieved subversively through the development of a ‘community of philosophers’ who are prepared to challenge, critique and subvert the mission statement of the ‘university of excellence’ from within, focusing on how scholarly and academic thought and writing might develop in this new post-Enlightenment era. Summarising, contextualising and extending previous understandings of the rise of corporatism and the subsequent demise of the traditional aims and values of the university, Rolfe assesses the situation in contemporary UK and international settings. He recognises that changes to the traditional idea of the university are inevitable and explores some of the challenges and consequences of this shift in the academic world, suggesting how academics can work with change, whilst at the same time seeking to undermine its worst excesses. This timely and thought provoking book is a must-read for all academics at University level, as well as education policy makers.
