The fourth in a series of volumes on the history of the university focuses on the chancellorship of William Pearson Tolley, whose uniquely distinctive management style contributed to the university's rapid development. At a time when higher education faced its most serious challenges, Syracuse University literally tripled in size, student admissions, and influence under Tolley.

Incorporating interviews with alumni, administrators, students, and chancellors Melvin Eggers and Tolley, Greene discusses the intense building and growth period of Tolley's twenty-seven year administration. He recounts in detail the impact of the civil rights struggle and the Vietnam War and uses archival material from Syracuse University's Arents Research Library, which includes a rich selection of photographs never before published.
