Abstract
A source of pressure and tension on campus stems from the clash of academic and market values that accompanies the growing influence of money and business principles on higher education. David Kirp, professor of public policy at the Goldman School of Public Policy at the University of California, Berkeley, discusses trends toward outsourcing and revenue-centered management (RCM) in light of their effect on academic values.
