Choice Olivas resoundingly justifies why more scholars should recognize the political and sociological factors influencing courts today and vice versa. This book successfully chronicles some of the constitutional hallmarks within higher education during the past half century and justifies a broader examination among legal scholars for the future, as issues related to intellectual property, commercialization in athletics, and others predictably will reach this nation's highest court. -- Joy Blanchard Review of Higher Education This book successfully chronicles some of the constitutional hallmarks within higher education during the past half century and justifies a broader examination among legal scholars for the future. -- Joy Blanchard Review of Higher Education This volume is an excellent introduction to areas of discrimination law that affect postsecondary education. It would be useful for law collections with both extensive and limited holdings in education or discrimination law and those that support graduate programs in educational administration. -- Kathleen A.
