Produktbeschreibung
The essentials of higher education law, updated for practicing attorneys and law and education students This single-volume text provides a current reference and guide for attorneys who advise higher education institutions as well as for coursework in higher education law. Programs preparing attorneys and higher education administrators have long relied on The Law of Higher Education to provide a foundational understanding of statutes and court decisions pertinent to colleges and universities. This updated edition discusses the most significant areas of the law, including institutional liability, academic employment, academic freedom, sexual misconduct, athletics, and freedom of speech. Each chapter is introduced by a discussion of key terms and topics, and a glossary of legal terminology facilitates comprehension. Students without a legal background will benefit from a special appendix on how to read legal material. Additional resources and references make this book a valuable reference for active professionals, as well. Since the publication of the previous edition, there have been substantial changes in the law, such as the rapid evolution of Title IX and intercollegiate athletics. This volume brings readers current, making it an important resource for practicing attorneys as well as law students and for graduate students in higher education administration programs.
