"Democracy's Education: Public Work, Citizenship, and the Future of Colleges and

Universities"

Show Guest: Harry C. Boyte

According to Harry Boyte, today Americans feel powerless in the face of problems on every front. Such

feelings are acute in higher education, where educators are experiencing an avalanche of changes and college

graduates are face mounting debt and uncertain job prospects. Higher education is increasingly seen as a

ticket to individual success-a private good, not a public one. Don't miss this important discussion as Harry

C. Boyte challenges educators and their partners to claim their power to change and the urgent need to

address today's educational challenges, as well as other critical social issues.
