II “BROAD AND CHRISTIAN IN THE FULLEST SENSE” WILLIAM RAINEY HARPER AND THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO J OHN W. B OYER OCCASIONAL PAPERS ON HIGHER XVEDUCATION XV THE COLLEGE OF THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO William Rainey Harper, 1882, Baldwin and Harvey Photographic Artists, Chicago. I I “BROAD AND CHRISTIAN IN THE FULLEST SENSE” William Rainey Harper and the University of Chicago INTRODUCTION e meet today at a noteworthy moment in our history. The College has now met and surpassed the enrollment W goals established by President Hugo F. Sonnenschein in 1996, and we have done so while increasing our applicant pool, our selectivity, and the overall level of participation by the faculty in the College’s instructional programs. Many people—College faculty, staff, alumni, and students—have contributed to this achievement, and we and our successors owe them an enormous debt of gratitude. I am particularly grateful to the members of the College faculty—as I know our students and their families are—for the crucial role that you played as teachers, as mentors, as advisers, and as collaborators in the academic achievements of our students. The College lies at the intellectual center of the University, an appropriate role for the University’s largest demographic unit. We affirm academic excellence as the primary norm governing all of our activities. Our students study all of the major domains of human knowledge, and they do so out of a love of learning and discovery. They undertake general and specialized studies across the several disciplines, from the humanities to the natural sciences and mathematics to the social sciences and beyond, This essay was originally presented as the Annual Report to the Faculty of the College on October 25, 2005. -

“True to the Highest Ideals of the University” Viewing Conflict As a Catalyst for Reevaluating Institutional Standards and Practices
“TRUE TO THE HIGHEST IDEALS OF THE UNIVERSITY” VIEWING CONFLICT AS A CATALYST FOR REEVALUATING INSTITUTIONAL STANDARDS AND PRACTICES By Gina Vizvary A DISSERTATION Submitted to Michigan State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Higher, Adult, and Lifelong Education – Doctor of Philosophy 2015 ABSTRACT “TRUE TO THE HIGHEST IDEALS OF THE UNIVERSITY” VIEWING CONFLICT AS A CATALYST FOR REEVALUATING INSTITUTIONAL STANDARDS AND PRACTICES By Gina Vizvary Conflict at institutions of higher education is not new. However, with the prevalence of the internet, disputes now capture the attention of national media outlets and can spread quickly to a large audience via social media sites and online publications. Over the last decade, conflicts over athletics, curricular changes, online classes, and special-interest research initiatives have pitted faculty against faculty and faculty against administration. At times whole campus communities may become involved in the fray, from students to staff to alumni. Organizational literature on colleges and universities tells us that higher education institutions have unique characteristics that distinguish them from the business or for-profit world. Universities must continuously innovate and adapt in order to stay relevant to society. Yet they are also decades or centuries old, with traditions, legacies, and unique cultures that pervade campus life. This tension between the old and the new, tradition and innovation, presents challenges to university leaders. When new decisions seem to contradict longstanding traditions, there is bound to be backlash. The focus of the current study was to understand the tensions that fuel university conflict. The study utilized a historical perspective to research the conflict over the planning and implementation of the Milton Friedman Institute (MFI) at the University of Chicago in 2008. -

Burton, Lawrence A. Kimpton, and Edward H. Levi INTRODUCTION ur academic year is well launched and by all accounts our students are doing very well. There are several ways O to express the quality of the student body — including their achievements in high school and the work they did to win admission in a very competitive environment, and of course their accomplishments after they graduate. We have heard about our excellent admissions numbers from Jim Nondorf today, and we will have to wait to see the post-graduation results for our current students, yet I do not doubt that they will make us proud. But the most important and the most gratifying expression of the quality of our students is the work that they do with us every day in our classrooms and our laboratories. Of that there can be no doubt. I have become used to being stopped by colleagues — at the beginning of the academic year especially — to be told about the intellectual energy, ambition, and creativity of our students, and it never ceases to be gratifying. -

II “THE KIND OF UNIVERSITY THAT WE DESIRE TO BECOME” STUDENT HOUSING AND THE EDUCATIONAL MISSION OF THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO J OHN W. B OYER OCCASIONAL PAPERS ON HIGHER XVIIIEDUCATION XVIII THE COLLEGE OF THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO Frederic C. Woodward, 1874 –1956 Professor of Law, Vice President and Dean of the Faculties, Acting President I I “THE KIND OF UNIVERSITY THAT WE DESIRE TO BECOME” Student Housing and the Educational Mission of the University of Chicago INTRODUCTION e meet today at an important moment in the history of the College. The College suffered a reversal of W fortune in the early 1950s, and the ill effects of this lasted for over forty years. The crisis was most visible in light of our enrollment. We were a College of substantial size and presence on campus before the World War II (when we were also as large or larger than our academic peers), but by 1953 we had lost half our enrollment and had fewer than 1,400 students by 1954. We did not return to our pre-1940 size until the mid-1980s. In con- junction with the enrollment crisis, and accelerating in its wake, came a crisis of resources. A small and often embattled College became a kind of de facto self-fulfilling prophecy, and as a result it was all too easy to ignore the kinds of investments that would have allowed the College to grow back to robust health. The College’s demographic collapse occurred exactly at the time that other top private universities began to expand in the 1950s and 1960s. -
