| Abstract (English): | Most everyone understands that the worldwide expansion of higher education (HE) is driven by the "college wage premium": the boost in income that a person can expect on graduation. "Getting a better job" continues to be among the most important reasons United States (US) students seek a higher education. But economic motives often jar with the sensibilities of teachers and scholars. They are trained to value knowledge for its own sake. They believe in education as a force for positive transformation. Their worldly success is tied to the pursuit of unworldly ideas. Many of them are unlikely to see employability as the central aim of their teaching. (DIPF/Orig.) |
