Law, Policy and Higher Education fills a gap in the market for casebooks on higher education law, as the materials presented lend themselves to timely and important discussions of both law and policy issues. Chapters 1 and 2 provide an overview of higher education with respect to the laws and policies that shape its roles and responsibilities in society Chapters 3 and 4 examine the college's employment relationship with faculty and staff Chapters 5, 6, and 7 explore the rights and responsibilities of students Chapter 8 addresses how the university affects and is affected by the intercollegiate athletic enterprise Chapters 9, 10, and 11 present the influence and impact of government regulations as well as higher education's efforts to shape policies that further institutional aims, and manage university resources Chapter 12 addresses issues of intellectual property, especially involving faculty, but with an eye on public/private partnerships, ownership, and commercialization of research Chapter 13 presents an expose of persons with special needs, a largely overlooked and underserved population within the university

Reference

This book examines topics within the intersection of law, policy, and higher education. These topics include governance and authority, premises liability, campus health and safety concerns, student free speech rights, religion and campus policies, student conduct and due process, academic freedom and expressions pursuant to official duties, intercollegiate athletics and rights of players, students struggling with mental health, employee discrimination claims, and intellectual property and commercialization efforts. Besides its comprehensive coverage, this book is captivating and accessible. Specifically, this book offers a compilation of cases, commentaries, articles, policy reports, and other materials to analyze and illustrate key doctrinal legal rules, various legal perspectives, and policy debates on the critical issues tackled in higher education law and policy.

Law and Public Education: Cases and Materials

Although primarily a legal work, Law and Public Education also addresses historical, pedagogical, economic, and other social science literature. Coverage of the cases and other materials is more complete than in many other casebooks, as it is important for the student to master the complexities, ambiguities, and nuances of meaning that would be missed with too much editing. Three primary themes are addressed: 
<li>The decision-making process and the proper allocation of decision-making power among those who compete for it; </li>
<li>The conflicts involved in a liberal, democratic society seeking to inculcate values in its young; and </li>
<li>The tensions that pervade a nation and an educational system torn between values of national unity, secularism, and universalism on the one hand and the desire to preserve pluralism and enhance sectarian and parochial subgroup cultures on the other. All three branches of government play a significant role in shaping and influencing the enterprise of American public education. The federal government has reformed education policy significantly in the past several decades and much of the decision-making undertaken by local and state school officials continues to be litigated in the courts. This Fifth Edition of Law and Public Education reflects the dynamic impact the law has had on this transformation of authority. The changes have been substantial since the publication of the Fourth Edition and, as a result, much of the current edition represents a rewriting of materials and the introduction of the most recent case law.</li>

This heavily discounted, three-hole punched, alternative loose-leaf version of the hardbound book is printed on 8 ½ x 11 inch paper with wider margins and with the same pagination as the hardbound book.
