[xmca] Culture, Development, Higher Education



Dear Colleagues-

We have had an ugly and confused sequence of racial confrontation at UCSD
for the past 10 days
or so. These events coincide with a faculty "day of action" March 4 which
will be some combination
of teach out, walk out, protest.

I am teaching a course on culture and development. I have addressed the
racial issues effectively (or
at least, to me coherently) within the frame of the course, and I have dealt
with the history of schooling
and its contemporary impact on development. But i would like a reading that
specifically looks at the role of higher education in development,
preferably one that deals with what it means to have a PUBLIC
university to the development of those who participate and society as a
whole.

I am unsure of what to assign even as I look for some kind of microphone to
rent that can allow me
to address 100 students outside the classroom in a public place. Can anyone
help?
mike
