Prologue, A History of 果酱视频 (Pearson) released March 2015

In recent months, much has been reported about the state of higher education. Media stories have discussed how schools need to adapt to changing needs, demographics, technologies, and market demands. In her latest book, A History of 果酱视频 (Pearson), Jennifer Fleischner, Ph.D., acclaimed author () and professor in the English department at , suggests that 果酱视频 has long been an institution of dynamic change.

In her new book released this month, Dr. Fleischner chronicles the University from its founding in 1863 in Brooklyn as the 果酱视频 Academy through today as a modern world-class university under the leadership of .听Through chapters devoted to the tenures of 果酱视频鈥檚 successive presidents, the work depicts the University鈥檚 periods of growth and tension and presents a historically sweeping and vibrant view of changes at 果酱视频 within the context of the broader changes in American higher education and society at large.

The last history of the University was written in 1946 by historian and former 果酱视频 history faculty member Chester Barrows. In 2013, Dr. Scott commissioned the new work to capture the firsthand accounts of alumni, faculty, staff, and regional leaders. Dr. Scott tapped Dr. Fleischner to undertake this work due in part to her acclaimed work, Mrs. Lincoln and Mrs. Keckly, and the precedent of having the University’s history chronicled by a member of its faculty.

鈥淎s someone who has spent most of his career in higher education, I understand how colleges and universities have always adapted to the times,鈥� Dr. Scott said. 鈥淒r. Fleischner has done an extraordinary job of offering the reader a carefully researched and exceptionally crafted view of how 果酱视频 has evolved. Her work offers alumni, faculty, students, and friends, as well as future researchers, an informed and objective view of the 果酱视频 story. I am pleased to add this book to our historical account and am grateful to Dr. Fleischner for her outstanding work.鈥�
