Title: The law of higher education
First published: 1978
Description: "William Kaplin's new, up-to-date volume is the first comprehensive sourcebook on law for administrators and their legal counsel. The book, which includes detailed discussions of the Bakke and Horowitz cases, cites and clearly summarizes the laws, regulations, and court decisions pertaining to higher education. Kaplin addresses today's most important legal issues and developments, from affirmative action and faculty collective bargaining to federal aid-to-education programs and civil rights compliance. For each issue, Kaplin clarifies basic legal principles, points out future trends, and gives advice to administrators for handling the issues in a way that is both legally sound and in the best interests of the institution." "Kaplin analyzes and interprets the law as it affects almost every aspect of higher education. He discusses the legal relationship of an institution to its trustees, administrators, faculty, and students, as well as to the local community, state and federal governments, and educational accrediting agencies. Chapters are organized for quick and efficient reference; annotated bibliographies at the ends of chapters guide readers to key literature for in-depth study; and extensive, cross-referenced case and subject indexes contain over 3,000 entries." -- Book Jacket.
