Description

Explore the intellectual history of the multiversity through this Routledge publication. This book examines Clark Kerr's vision as presented in his famous work, The Uses of the University, and his major administrative work, the California Master Plan for Higher Education. Readers will learn how the University of California rose to prominence by implementing a hedgehog concept of systemic excellence. The text uses the dichotomy of the visionary hedgehog and the shrewd fox to explain the development of the master plan. It also looks at how recent challenges in higher education stem from a shift toward a fox culture. This volume is an essential resource for understanding leadership, diversity, and planning within the context of large-scale educational systems.
