Now in its third edition, this book reflects the extraordinary growth in "the law of higher education" and the accompanying rise in scholarship and commentary on higher education law and governance. The case selection reflects major themes and issues. To this end, cases with interesting facts but less precedential value, news accounts of fascinating developments, and insights and articles from scholars and practitioners have also been used. The result is a unique book on a rapidly growing area of law and society."Despite Professor Olivas's caution about making comparisons between this work and the acknowledged standard treatise in the field (William Kaplin's Law and Higher Education), these two volumes should be viewed by attorneys, academicians, and administrators as complementary. Unlike a treatise, the Olivas casebook gives the reader a comprehensive array of cases and court decisions on these subjects. Professor Olivas writes overviews to provide contextual detail and history.... [Chapter 2 is] an excellent example of the prudent use of cases... [Chapter 3] contains a panoply of material taken from a variety of sources about fascinating episodes, disputes, and court cases... This is rich material..." — Bimonthly Review of Law Books, review of the first edition "The Law and Higher Education . . . has become not merely a reference, but an archive in its own right." — Scott Chafin, Media Reviews, review of the second edition
