In Leadership in Higher Education: Views from the Presidency, presidents and chancellors from some of America's most respected universities candidly reflect on experiences during the decade leading up to the 21st century and immediately following. This was a time of change and uncertainty, when opportunities for achievement and potential for failure made their role uncommonly challenging, and success called for determination, integrity, foresight, skill, and courage. Leading individuals, led by Francis L. Lawrence, address higher education as the passport to the American dream.
