The Civil War transformed American life. Not only did thousands of men die on battlefields and millions of slaves become free; cultural institutions reshaped themselves in the context of the war and its aftermath. The first book to examine the Civil War's immediate and long-term impact on higher education, Reconstructing the Campus begins by tracing college communities' responses to the secession crisis and the outbreak of war. Students made supplies for the armies or left campus to fight. Professors joined the war effort or struggled to keep colleges open. The Union and Confederacy even took over some campuses for military use. Then moving beyond 1865, the book explores the war's long-term effects on colleges. Michael David Cohen argues that the Civil War and the political and social conditions the war created prompted major reforms, including the establishment of a new federal role in education. Reminded by the war of the importance of a well-trained military, Congress began providing resources to colleges that offered military courses and other practical curricula. Congress also, as part of a general expansion of the federal bureaucracy that accompanied the war, created the Department of Education to collect and publish data on education. For the first time, the U.S. government both influenced curricula and monitored institutions. The war posed special challenges to Southern colleges. Often bereft of students and sometimes physically damaged, they needed to rebuild. Some took the opportunity to redesign themselves into the first Southern universities. They also admitted new types of students, including the poor, women, and, sometimes, formerly enslaved blacks. Thus, while the Civil War did great harm, it also stimulated growth, helping, especially in the South, to create our modern system of higher education.

From USA Today bestselling author Jennifer Sucevic comes a steamy, older brother's teammate off-limits new adult sports romance that is laugh out loud funny featuring a strong heroine and the cocky football player who falls first and hard for her. Carson Roberts is Western University’s most sought-after tight end. He’s the total package. A pretty face to go along with all those sculpted muscles—check. An All-American—double check. A guaranteed one-way ticket to the NFL after graduation—triple check. Did I happen to mention that he’s also my brother’s best friend, which means I grew up with the guy and have crushed on him for nearly just as long? We’re talking a decade of unrequited yearning here, folks. Don’t worry, I’m slowly coming to terms with the fact that he’ll never see me as anything more than the little sis he never had. Sort of. And even if he did just so happen to notice that I’ve filled out and no longer wear braces, Brayden would have a major conniption. When it comes to the male species, he’s ridiculously overprotective. Any guy who has so much as given me a bit of side-eye has been treated to a swift and memorable beat down. Which is precisely why I’m still in possession of my V-card. Want to know how to make being a nineteen-year-old virgin with a major crush on her brother’s best friend even more pathetic? Blurt out at a frat party that you’ve spent all these years saving yourself for him. Sadly, I can’t even blame it on the alcohol because I don’t drink. If you’re thinking it can’t possibly get more humiliating than that, you’d be wrong. Oh. So. Wrong. ---- “There is an intense sexual tension between them that had me on the edge of my seat, waiting for it to break” -Joy, GoodReads “This was such a great read with real life issues that were handled admirably and the love between Elle and Carson was impossible to deny for anyone” -Courtney, GoodReads “The angst, the push and pull between these two made this one hard to put down” - Christy, GoodReads “It’s got all the parts of a good college/sports romance with an intensity that will keep you interested” -Jela, GoodReads Read the entire Campus Series Campus Player Campus Heartthrob Campus Flirt Campus Hottie Campus God Campus Legend --- Keywords: Sports romance, alpha male, Sports romance books, Football romance, Friends-to-lovers, Forced proximity, College, university romance, College romance, College sports romance, Virgin romance, He falls first, College football romance, humor, laugh, sexy, swoony, Off-limits romance, Campus Series, Claremont Cougars, Barnett Bulldogs, Romance book, Best seller, New release, Swoon, Funny, love, friends, Hate to Love You, King of Campus, Campus Player, playboy, romance series, steamy, spicy, hot, hot romance, sparks fly, new adult, new adult sports romance, found family, second chance, athlete, good girl, bad boy, opposites attract, football player, student, girl next door, secret relationship, secret crush, secret romance, innocent Readers also enjoyed books by: Natasha Madison, Kristen Callihan, Anna Todd, Nana Malone, Sarina Bowen, LJ Shen, Lucy Score, Elle Kennedy, Helena Hunting, Rebecca Jenshak, Gina Azzi, Jamie Davenport, Hannah Grace, Piper Lawson, Cathryn Fox, Ember Leigh, J.H.

"Although it is commonly known that college students and other activists, as well as politicians, actively participated in the fight for and against civil rights in the middle decades of the twentieth century, historical accounts have not adequately focused on the roles that the nation's college presidents played in the debates concerning racism. Focusing on the period between 1948 and 1968, The Campus Color Line sheds light on the important place of college presidents in the struggle for racial parity. College presidents, during a time of violence and unrest, initiated and shaped racial policies and practices inside and outside of the educational sphere. The Campus Color Line illuminates how the legacy of academic leaders' actions continues to influence the unfinished struggle for Black freedom and racial equity in education and beyond."--

In recent years, politicians led by President Obama and prominent senators and governors have teamed with extremists on campus to portray our nation’s institutions of higher learning as awash in a violent crime wave—and to suggest (preposterously) that university leaders, professors, and students are indifferent to female sexual assault victims in their midst. Neither of these claims has any bearing to reality. But they have achieved widespread acceptance, thanks in part to misleading alarums from the Obama administration and biased media coverage led by The New York Times. The frenzy about campus rape has helped stimulate—and has been fanned by—ideologically skewed campus sexual assault policies and lawless commands issued by federal bureaucrats to force the nation’s all-too-compliant colleges and universities essentially to presume the guilt of accused students. The result has been a widespread disregard of such bedrock American principles as the presumption of innocence and the need for fair play. This book uses hard facts to set the record straight. It explores, among other things, nearly two dozen of the cases since 2010 in which students who in all likelihood would have or have subsequently been found not guilty in a court of law have, in a lopsided process, been hastily and carelessly branded as sex criminals and expelled or otherwise punished by their colleges, often after being tarred and feathered by their fellow students. And it shows why all students—and, eventually, society as a whole—are harmed when our nation’s universities abandon pursuit of truth and seek instead to accommodate the passions of the mob. As detailed in the new Epilogue, some encouraging events have transpired since this book was first published in October 2016. A majority of the judicial rulings in dozens of lawsuits by male students claiming their schools treated them unfairly and discriminated against them based on their gender have rebuked the schools for their handling of these cases. And Education Secretary Betsy DeVos called for fairness to accused students and accusers alike, revoked most of the guilt-presuming Obama-era policies, and began a protracted rule-making process designed to compel procedural fairness and nondiscrimination.

"A trio of dazzling novels in a comic mode that the author has now made completely his own...a cause for celebration." -The New York Times Book Review David Lodge's three delightfully sophisticated campus novels, now gathered together in one volume, expose the world of academia at its best-and its worst. In Changing Places, we meet Philip Swallow, British lecturer in English at the University of Rummidge, and the flamboyant American Morris Zapp of Euphoric State University, who participate in a professorial exchange program at the close of the tumultuous sixties. Ten years later in Small World, older but not noticeably wiser, they are let loose on the international conference circuit-along with a memorable and somewhat oversexed cast of dozens. And in Nice Work, the leftist feminist Dr. Robyn Penrose at Rummidge University is assigned to shadow the director of a local engineering firm, sparking a collision of ideologies and lifestyles that seems unlikely to foster anything other than mutual antipathy.

Campus Battlefield takes that fight to our nation’s college campuses, where the left’s decades-long campaign to transform our universities into radical re-education camps is working, and now we are seeing the disastrous results. Free speech, intellectually rigorous debate, and the simple concepts of tolerance and fairness are routinely being corrupted and weaponized to promote radical leftist ideologies, enforce groupthink, and marginalize or eliminate any student, professor, and dean who gets in their way. All the while, these hothouses of close-mindedness are staffed by blame-America, anti-free market, victimology professors who are twisting the minds of tomorrow’s leaders.

A provocative report on the state of American higher education discusses the consequences of decades of neglect and covers such recommendations as discontinuing tenure, refocusing on education over research, and tapping new technologies.

From USA Today bestselling author, Jennifer Sucevic, comes a sexy novella in the Campus Series. Know what the problem is with crushing on your best friend? That there's not a damn thing you can do about it. Especially if you don't want to blow up your entire relationship. Easton is the guy I turn to when I need...well, just about everything. And what I've learned over the years is that friendship is more difficult to come by than hookups and boyfriends. Plus, it's not like he sees me as anything other than his soccer playing gal pal. The one he used to sneak out of the house with when we were teenagers. But we're not kids any more. At the end of this year, we'll graduate and go our separate ways. Why that thought fills me with sadness, I don't know. Actually, I do. And that's the problem. So, when my roommate suggests going out with her hot, hockey playing cousin, it seems like the perfect opportunity to move on from this crush. According to her-and I quote-the best way to get over one guy is to get under- I'm pretty sure you know how the saying goes. *Campus Flirt is a short novella (20,000 words) and was first released in the Let's Play anthology*
