by Wayne Jones , September 22, 2009

A book review is not complete without a decision if the reviewer would recommend it or not. “Big Man on Campus” should be read by parents preparing to send their children to college, by every new faculty member as a part of the orientation process, by individuals who are appointed to serve on university boards of visitors or trustees, by those who want to learn more about leadership in general and higher education in particular and by anyone who shares Stephen Joel Trachtenberg’s concern for the future of higher education in America.

 

Dr. Wayne A. Jones is an assistant professor in the Department of Political Science, Public Administration and Economics at Virginia State University.
