Fourteen American academics, researchers and policy makers contribute 13 chapters examining the critical questions in accountability in higher education--who is responsible to whom, for what purposes, for whose benefit, by which means, and with what consequences. The authors see the major challenge as balancing the response of colleges and universities, public and private, to state priorities, academic concerns, and market forces. They assess the success of accountability programs in achieving that balance, present some characteristics of an effective system, and recommend actions for the higher education community, state and federal governments, and individual colleges and universities.
