Author: John Cain

Format: Paperback

Number of Pages: 256


Off Course includes insights from a variety of university insiders, including former vice-chancellors and current University Council members. Cain and Hewitt argue that, in its brash marketing and self-promotion, Melbourne has lost sight of its fundamental role as a public institution. They trace where Melbourne has gone wrong, and offer solutions for a way back. Off Course is a candid and disturbing case study that reveals a system under siege, and is a timely wake-up call for all those who believe in the commercial quick-fix for tertiary education.
