A Study of the Philosophy of Higher Education in the United States of America Author: Chung-lin Hsu

Abstract：

Due to common concern with higher education a number of critical problems were discussed by educators last year before the Ministry of Education took action to change the Law of University. Some issues, for example, the legitimacy of university, academic autonomy, academic freedom, students' participation in affairs on campus, were presented in a variety of forms to the educational forum.
