Good Schools of Education: The Prestige Barrier.

Gifford, Bernard R.

Social Policy, v15 n2 p40-43 Fall 1984

Attempts to account for the low prestige of schools of education, especially among elite universities. Urges that university leadership challenge this state of affairs. Proffers reasons why schools of education are partly to blame for their lowly status but argues, nevertheless, that these schools are indispensable and deserve more prestige. (RDN)
