A Third Look at the Two Cultures: The New Economic Responsibility of the University.

Declercq, Guido V.

International Journal of Institutional Management in Higher Education, v5 n2 p117-22 Jul 1981

The problem of having two "cultures" (the scientific and the literary) that do not communicate with each other, resulting in difficulty in adapting to the scientific revolution, is discussed. Another gap in society is identified: universities are sources of innovative ideas, but society does not exploit them. (Author/MLW)
