Publisher's Comments (cont.)
Calvert (political science, DePauw U.) presents 13 papers concerned with the proper role of American universities in the political education of students. The studies were originally presented at a symposium premised on the statement that the organizers "share a special concern about the disengagement of college students from democratic participation." This overarching issue is explored by the contributors from a number of different angles, including explorations of online learning and public spaces, the role of the media and consumerism as "invisible tutors," education and the question of moral education, religion on campus, and the political atmosphere following on the September 11th terrorist attacks.
