The compact between States and Public Research Universities

public education, research universities, Stanley Fish 1 Minute

Stanley Fish writing in the NYTimes on-line about the withering of the social contract that used to exist between States and their public research universities (with SUNY as an exemplar and Michigan as an exception).

What was the contract? It was simply a stable share of the state revenues in return for low tuition and broad access.
