During the late 1960s and early 1970s, a powerful new force, student activism, appeared on the campuses of America's colleges and universities. Student Freedom In American Higher Education brought together authors with various perspectives on the concept of student freedom (Teachers College Press, Columbia University, 1969). Student Freedom Revisited brings together a different, but equally diverse group of international scholars, administrators, and students, and likewise divergent views. This collection of essays focuses on the dominant themes in student freedom today, from technology and politics, to diversity, sexual mores, and the law. Two chapters by current student activists provide uncommon insight into the resurgence of campus activism. Regardless of the reader's particular interest in higher education, he or she will find in these pages both diverse perspectives and valuable analyses of the contemporary and emerging issues in student freedom.

Crisis management has become an expertise that is critical to every college or university. While developing plans and protocols is an important part of effective crisis response work, the most successful crisis responders also think about "doing the right thing" when faced with tough decisions. Crisis Management: Responding from the Heart explores this other dimension of crisis response and gives feelings the same level of importance as procedures. Through practical crisis response models and real-life stories from responders and their spouses, parents, and administrators, readers will discover the strength that comes from doing the right thing. Crisis Management illuminates how responding from the heart has the incredible power to energize the response process and contribute to a positive outcome.
