[Your Name Here] University
Philip G. Altbach has a fine op-ed in tomorrow's Christian Science Monitor about the sale of naming rights at colleges and universities. The trend towards sale of naming rights, Altbach writes, will "inevitably weaken the concept of the university as an institution that is devoted to the search for truth and the transmission of knowledge, of an institution with almost a millennium of history."
Kudos (again) to the Christian Science Monitor for printing so many thoughtful pieces on the effects of commercialism on our culture, government and educational system.
