The American University in a Postsecular Age
Authors: Douglas Jacobsen, Rhonda Jacobsen Publisher: Oxford University Press Edition: 1 Publish Year: 2008 ISBN: 9780195323443 For much of the twentieth century, it was assumed that higher education was and ought to be a secular enterprise, but that approach no longer suffices. The culture has shifted, and contemporary college and university students are increasingly bringing religious and spiritual questions to campus. In response, college and university leaders are exploring anew the relationship between religion and higher education.
