Harvard Envy is a chapter excerpt from Change.edu coming out October 18, 2011.

Exploring the limitations of the exclusive, tradition-bound world of higher education, innovator Andrew S. Rosen, chairman and CEO of Kaplan, Inc., delivers a vision for making a world-class college experience available to students of all backgrounds.

Little is known about John Harvard, who bequeathed his books and £779 to a fledgling college on the Charles River in the 1630s, but the institution that bears his name has become the gold standard for universities worldwide. Tracing this fascinating history, and the history of American higher education overall, “Harvard Envy” raises important questions about the effect of super-elite campuses on America’s educational landscape. Just as Congress hotly debated whether to approve land-grant colleges in the nineteenth century, opening the doors of higher education to farmers, we face a competitive new demand for a highly educated workforce. Yet many colleges continue to insist on limiting access, and many college applicants continue to believe that exclusive institutions deliver the highest quality.

With an eye-opening examination of the U.S. News and World Report college rankings and other barometers, “Harvard Envy” takes an enlightened look at how universities allocate resources and talent. Offering an inspiring alternative to the Ivory Tower playbook, Andrew S. Rosen presents a bold, cost-effective new vision for a truly competitive higher education system that serves both individual and national interests.

This chapter made me think about my own education...I guess colleges/universities aren't one-size-fits-all, and there is something to be said for the fact that colleges in general are spending so much time and effort trying to be something that many students do not need. Excited for the actual book to come out!

Interesting book.
A note on the kindle format: It told me that it had an error and I had to delete it and re-upload several times, however I could read it to the end. So keep trying to delete it and re-upload if you're having problems.

Harvard Envy: now a Canadian thing, too.

Kaplan brings attention to the economic force behind higher education in the United States with this exert. What's interesting, however is the application it has to younger Canadian universities and how "Harvard Envy" isn't solely a national phenomenon but an international one which is seeping it's way slowly into Canadian territory. It's an interesting read overall and would recommend it to anyone!

This sort of inflation has been happening everywhere. This addition of unnecessary expensive bells and whistles to the detriment of the consumer and /or the product is something that needs to be looked at by society. I am glad to see the subject covered as regards our colleges.

Corporate Garbage

2013年8月12日 - 已在美国亚马逊上发表

Is it Harvard envy or a serious flaw in the emergent corporate structure of higher education in the US? Well, for the CEO of a massive corporation that sells degrees shamelessly, it's clearly something else entirely. Of course this book got the endorsement of Bill Gates who has been under scrutiny as of late for dumping money into the failing No Child Left Behind policy and philosophy. Standardization, preparation for the work force rather than education as a good in and of itself, this book is the harbinger of all that is wrong with the new corporate model of higher education.
