Product Information

'[The university] is a place where those who hate ignorance may strive to know; where those who perceive truth may strive to make others see; where seekers and learners alike, banded together in the search for knowledge, will honour thought in all its finer ways, will welcome thinkers in distress or in exile, will uphold ever the dignity of thought and learning and will exact standards on these things' (John Masefield). Ron Dearing, in the foreword of his 1997 report, quotes Masefield with approval, as summing up the values 'which characterise higher education and which are fundamental to any understanding of it'. There are many universities in tight corners who might not recognise in this quote the reality of their life in HE.Nonetheless, it has a fine feeling and Dearing later begins to unpack such values through suggesting the four basic aims of the university: to develop individuals' potential to be well equipped for work and to contribute to society; to increase knowledge and understanding - for their own sake and for the economy; to serve the needs of the economy at all levels; to shape a democratic, civilised and inclusive society. This series of purposes and values takes us very quickly in a complex debate, and our book tries to capture something of that depth and complexity. Much of the discussion in this book comes from debates held at the University of Leeds, and involves many who have clear connection to the university. Rowan Williams, for instance, spent some years teaching at Mirfield Theological College before moving to Cambridge, and Peter Scott is a former Pro-Vice-Chancellor at Leeds. It is fitting that on its 100th anniversary the University that Leeds should be leading a reflection on the purpose and values of Higher Education. Other contributors remind us of the global and diverse nature of modern Higher Education. Universities, which have grown out of apparently local and civic interest, are now inescapably global and must deliver education in many different ways. This book is about the continuing development of Higher Education and how this occurs in relation to ever changing stakeholders and needs. The purpose of universities in the 13th century was to do with teaching and preparation for the professions of the law and the clergy. Now universities seek to serve the interests of a much wider number of professions, the nation in economic terms, and the nation in terms of culture and civilisation, in the broadest sense. Today, they seek to teach but also research. This means that the values debate in turn has become evermore complex. It is important in all this is to both have a conceptual overview and also to place the values debate in the context of the practice of Higher Education. And when this happens then surprises might occur. Perhaps the historic values of Higher Education are not as clear as we thought; perhaps the recent changes in Higher Education have brought in a new set of values around the concepts of accountability and transparency; and perhaps Higher Education has many purposes and with those many different values, not all of which rest easily together. To articulate and test such values, this book brings together many different perspectives, based on the premise that that no single discipline or perspective can claim to understand this issue or solely own any of the values in question. Hence, the book brings together representatives of many different disciplines and professions including: an engineer, a physicist, a mathematician, a theologian, a philosopher, a counsellor, sociologists, a chaplain, an administrator, a poet, teachers, and researchers. In the first part of this book, the different perspectives are subjected to critical scrutiny, and it soon becomes apparent that there are further questions about the foundation of any values. Peter Scott examines the rise of the civic university and the way in which the university and the city are in constant dialogue. The under
