Stephen Rowe, professor of philosophy at Grand Valley State University, has collected and published fifteen speeches by the university's former president, Arend D. Lubbers. During Lubbers's tenure, which spanned the last three decades of the twentieth century, he witnessed wars, economic crises, tremendous technological developments, and the emergence of what is sometimes called the postmodern world. These speeches detail Lubbers's identification of these changes, the challenges inherent in dealing with them, and the role of education, including higher education, in addressing these changes. |
