A MODEST PROPOSAL
. . . for Saving University Research
from the Budget Butcher
by Jack Miles
An Occasional Paper Published by
The California Higher Education Policy Center
September 1994
This essay argues that faculty at major universities, facing a massive
"assault on faculty research time," have the opportunity to "co-opt
the revolution" by replacing the current model for funding university
research with the model presently used by publishing houses. Universities
should fund all research prospectively, one at a time, and require any professor
whose research has not been funded to fill the rest of his or her schedule
with teaching.
