Beschreibung

Civic Honor Standards explores how to cultivate ethical behavior within civic institutions, crucial for maintaining public trust and effective governance. The book argues that ethical governance extends beyond individual morality, deeply intertwining with institutional design. For instance, robust ethical standards are essential for building public trust, much like a strong foundation supports a building.

 
The book begins by tracing the historical evolution of civic governance, analyzing shifts in societal expectations and the impact of globalization. It then progresses to strategies for promoting ethical behavior, such as codes of conduct and whistleblower protections, before examining real-world case studies.

 
A key contribution is the development of an Ethical Governance Index, enabling quantitative comparison of ethical performance across institutions. This academic work takes a practical, solutions-oriented approach, offering recommendations for policymakers and public administrators. It emphasizes that ethical governance is vital for a thriving society, making it valuable for anyone seeking to improve public service and strengthen the bonds between citizens and their government, promoting accountability, transparency, and integrity.

    Best known as a leader of the Indian takeover of Alcatraz Island in 1969, Adam Fortunate Eagle now offers an unforgettable memoir of his years as a young student at Pipestone Indian Boarding School in Minnesota. In this rare firsthand account, Fortunate Eagle lives up to his reputation as a "contrary warrior" by disproving the popular view of Indian boarding schools as bleak and prisonlike. 
     
     
     
    Fortunate Eagle attended Pipestone between 1935 and 1945, just as Commissioner of Indian Affairs John Collier's pluralist vision was reshaping the federal boarding school system to promote greater respect for Native cultures and traditions. But this book is hardly a dry history of the late boarding school era. Telling this story in the voice of his younger self, the author takes us on a delightful journey into his childhood and the inner world of the boarding school. Along the way, he shares anecdotes of dormitory culture, student pranks, and warrior games. Although Fortunate Eagle recognizes Pipestone's shortcomings, he describes his time there as nothing less than "a little bit of heaven." 
     
     
     
    Were all Indian boarding schools the dispiriting places that history has suggested? This book allows listeners to decide for themselves.

    With keen insight, Kathleen deLaski reimagines what higher education might offer and whom it should serve in Who Needs College Anymore? In the wake of declining US university enrollment and widespread crises of confidence in the value of a college degree, deLaski urges a mindset shift regarding the learning routes and credentials that best prepare students for success after high school. 
     
     
     
    The work draws on a decade of design-thinking research from the nonprofit Education Design Lab as well as 150 interviews of educational experts, college and career counselors, teachers, employers, and learners. DeLaski applies human-centered design to higher education reform, engaging the perspective of end users to search for better solutions. She highlights ten top principles based on user feedback and considers how well they are currently being enacted by colleges. 
     
     
     
    In particular, she urges institutions to better attend to the needs of new-majority learners, often described as nontraditional students, including people from low-income backgrounds, people of color, first-generation students, veterans, single mothers, rural students, part-time attendees, and neurodivergent students. She finds ample opportunity for colleges to support learners via alternative pathways to marketable knowledge. This work suggests innovation as a means of evolution.
