Description: This book resituates the political correctness debates in the humanities branch of the academy. Contending that conservatives have tainted entire academic disciplines, causing university humanists to go from irrelevant to dangerous overnight, the contributors see the PC debates as a struggle over the very purposes of higher education in the United States.

Ronald Strickland and Christopher Newfield have assembled the best and the brightest from across the academic disciplines for disclosure on the future of higher education in light of PC.
