Partnership Motives and Ethics in Corporate Investment in Higher Education
Morgan R. Clevenger
The roles that corporate social responsibility (CSR) and business support of democracy play in American higher education are infrequently discussed, though very important.

This work discusses the historic journey of funding from business and U.S. corporate engagement in American higher education. Covering topics such as academy-business relationships, philanthropic partnerships, and transactional partnerships, this work is essential for professors, executives, managers, faculty, fundraisers, leaders in higher education, researchers, students, and academicians with interests in CSR, business ethics, and higher education.
