Academe: Bulletin of the AAUP, v65 n8 p487-92 Dec 1979

The period since 1972 is described as one of decline in academic compensation, stability in enrollments, and research funding. Enrollment, academic marketplace, salaries, graduate school enrollments, inflation, and institutional factors are discussed. Increasing demand for higher education by lowering costs, improving quality, or appealing to new groups is suggested. (MLW)
