Volume 6 in The Daedalus Library concerns itself with the contemporary university--its conception, administration, faculty and styles of teaching and learning; its relation to foundations, the outlook of students. The place of the humanities, the transformation of scientific scholarship, the growth of evening courses, form a portion of the picture. Contributors include David Riesman, Paul Weiss, Martin Meyerson, and the editor (Director of the Division of Biological Sciences at Cornell University).
