Law, Policy, And Higher Education (Loose-Leaf Edition)

Law, Policy and Higher Education fills a gap in the market for casebooks on higher education law, as the materials presented lend themselves to timely and important discussions of both law and policy issues.   Chapters 1 and 2 provide an overview of higher education with respect to the laws and policies that shape its roles and responsibilities in society   Chapters 3 and 4 examine the college's employment relationship with faculty and staff   Chapters 5, 6, and 7 explore the rights and responsibilities of students   Chapter 8 addresses how the university affects and is affected by the intercollegiate athletic enterprise   Chapters 9, 10, and 11 present the influence and impact of government regulations as well as higher education's efforts to shape policies that further institutional aims, and manage university resources   Chapter 12 addresses issues of intellectual property, especially involving faculty, but with an eye on public/private partnerships, ownership, and commercialization of research    Chapter 13 presents an expose of persons with special needs, a largely overlooked and underserved population within the university

I'm a new administrator in higher education, and we used this book for a masters class. The cases that are contained in this book made it easy for the professor to connect concepts to real life situations. I'm glad that I took a course on legal aspects of higher education and that we were assigned this book. This book contains many resources and clear explanations.
