Like Caesar’s Gaul, my academic life has been divided into three parts, each 15 to 20 years in length. Federal involvement in higher education was growing, but from an extremely small base and the cost of college was falling relative to incomes. I hope a second higher education book will see the light of day soon – a publisher is reviewing it. Looking broadly at academia, we have moved from seemingly too little higher education to too much. Diminishing returns set into higher education a long time ago.
