About This Item
New York, NY, U.S.A.: Doubleday Publishing, 1990. Hard Cover. Fine/Fine. 4th Printing. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. Father Hesburgh ( The Hesburgh Papers: Higher Values in Higher Education , LJ 6/15/79) should be on almost everyone's list of the most influential figures in American higher education over the past few decades. In these fascinating memoirs, he chronicles the transformation of Notre Dame from a somewhat mediocre mid western university into a major national teaching and research institution. As president of Notre Dame for 35 years, he used that position as a platform to argue the truly critical issues not only within the academy, but outside as well. The chapters on his involvement with the Civil Rights movement (he was a member of the U.S. Civil Rights Commission) and criticism of early Vatican policy on academic freedom at Catholic universities are most compelling. Recommended for all readers, especially in these days of seeming cynicism and doubt. - From Library Journal. 331 pages..
