What’s New with Academe?
Our April newsletter offers a preview of selected articles and book reviews from the forthcoming spring issue of Academe as well as a selection of recent posts from the Academe Blog. The spring issue, which will be published in full in May, focuses on the campaign for a New Deal for Higher Education and builds on the work of Scholars for a New Deal for Higher Education, a group founded last year by Jennifer Mittelstadt.
