Expanding Access and Changing Missions: The Federal Role in U.S. Higher Education.
Kerr, Clark
Educational Record, v75 n4 p27-31 Fall 1994
The three great federal policy initiatives concerning higher education, the land-grant movement of the 1860s, the World War II-era decision to rely on universities for basic and applied research, and the GI Bill of 1944, have affected development of the American system of higher education more than any others.
