  • UC San Diego Department of Sociology Working Paper 2016-2
    UC San Diego Department of Sociology Working Paper 2016-2 Market University or University Family? Challenges to the Locus of Authority in Public University Tuition Policy Jennifer Nations Abstract State higher education systems have played an important role in increasing college participation among disadvantaged student populations, partly because they have been students’ most affordable option. Since the 1980s, nearly every state legislature with power to set public sector tuition has transferred tuition setting authority to unelected university governing boards, making way for substantial increases in tuition costs. I use a comparative case study method to show how institutionalized ideologies about public postsecondary education led policymakers in New York to resist this national trend while in Texas they abdicated control over tuition. I demonstrate that the organizational arrangement of postsecondary institutions placed different types of normative constraints on political actors as they weighed the merits of devolved tuition authority, leading to divergent outcomes. My research advances sociological understandings of the politics of higher education and education policymaking in general. Suggested Citation: Nations, Jennifer. 2016. “Market University or University Family?.” Working paper number 2016-2, UC San Diego Department of Sociology. http://sociology.ucsd.edu/_files/research/wp2016-2.pdf J. Nations Tuition Devolution 2016 – p. 1 INTRODUCTION Sociologists of education have shown that tuition costs and financial aid affect college access, especially for low-income students who are more sensitive to tuition increases (Baker and Velez 1996; De La Rosa 2006; Heller 2006, 1997; US Department of Education 1999). More broadly, the issue of tuition at the nation’s colleges and universities—and related increases in student debt—has grabbed the attention of scholars and the general public (Houle 2013).

  • Remembering the Alamo. Heights
    FUND-RAISING PHIL GRAMM LOOKS TO '96 Pg. 10 A JOURNAL OF FREE VOICES NOVEMBER 13, 1992 $1.75 Remembering the Alamo . Heights BY NANCY FOLBRE San Antonio; Amherst, Mass. HERE'S AN ENGLISHMAN, A Frenchman, a Texan and a T Mexican, plus a pilot, on a four- engine cargo plane flying an emer- gency mission. One of the engines conks out and the pilot announces that the plane will crash unless they lighten their load. He asks for a vol- unteer to parachute from the plane. The Englishman quietly says "God Save the Queen" and steps out the door. A few minutes later, a second engine conks out. Another sacrifice is required. The Frenchman leaps out, with a gallant "Vive la France." Then a third engine goes, and the pilot screams, "Act fast, boys, somebody else has got to jump." The Texan yells "Remember the Alamo!" and pushes the Mexican out the door. When I first heard this joke, in the halls of Alamo Heights High School about 25 years ago, I thought it was incredibly funny. For some reason, I was reminded of it when I received Demetrio Rodriguez and his grandson at new elementary school ALAN POGUE an upscale brochure in the mail ask- ing for my donation to the Alamo Heights School Anyway, I didn't exactly whip out my check- Court ruling that struck down the principle of Foundation.
