Higher education's looming collapse: Using new ways of doing business and social justice to avoid bankruptcy is a prescient read on the status of institutions of higher learning during the troubling times confronting the United States and world. COVID-19 threatens the very existence of many smaller colleges and universities as it creates financial difficulties for even larger institutions of higher education. Further, political divisions between and among students and faculty members create havoc on campuses. In light of these, and other challenges facing colleges and universities, the chapters and insightful analysis in Higher education's looming collapse is a must read as it provides food for thought for all interested in the survival of American colleges and universities.
