Transforming a College: The Story of a Little-Known College's Strategic Climb to National Distinction. Updated Edition
Keller, George
Johns Hopkins University Press
Ten years after the publication of "Transforming a College," Elon University continues to thrive as a school that reinvented itself and its community around the idea of inspiring and guiding students. George Keller's now-classic account has been used as an inspiration and playbook for many other institutions. Available for the first time in paperback, this edition coincides with Elon's 125th anniversary. A new foreword and afterword from Elon president Leo M. Lambert tell the rest of the story of the university's ambitious agenda to position Elon as a top-ranked liberal arts university and a national leader in engaged teaching and learning. [Foreword written by Leo M. Lambert.]
