Student Activism: When Will It Return?

Simon, Frank

Journal of Educational Thought, v14 n1 p38-43 Apr 1980

The author analyzes the characteristics of the students and the institutions involved in the campus disorders of the 1960s. He suggests that, while today's students lack their predecessors' social outrage, future rebellion is not impossible, especially while university personnel remain unresponsive and ignore the historic power of student rebellion.
