 From "Radical University" to Handmaiden of the Corporate State
University administrators and state legislatures across the country are responding to taxpayer cost-cutting initiatives, corporate insistence on running a university like a business, and right-wing political rhetoric about what's wrong with academe.
SSU's founders, however, instead struck a fatal liberal compromise with the forces of the market: its students were given the "choice" of receiving grades along with their written evaluations.
As part of a larger package, SSU "merged" with the University of Illinois, the pinnacle of Illinois higher education in the corporate-university mold ("merging" was the local euphemism for "hostile takeover").

 RAW360: The Disassembly of Sangamon State University
SSU was designated "the public affairs university of Illinois" at a time when public affairs, for many of the faculty at least, meant opposing the war in Vietnam and devising alternatives to mainstream institutions.
Within two years of the school's founding, SSU's administrators began to purge policies and personnel that stood in the way of normalization, beginning more than two decades of struggle between competing visions of what kind of university Sangamon was to be.

 BHEpeerstudy
Because institutions are grouped based on their mathematical similarity across all scales, two institutions with identical scores on two or three scales but widely apart on the other five or six scales may not be grouped together whereas two institutions with only a couple of points difference on each scale would probably be grouped together.
As a consequence, Illinois State University appears in group 11 with institutions whose scores are similar while Northern Illinois University and Southern Illinois University at Carbondale are both in group 13.
Sangamon State University's score on scale M2 is identical to group 4's average.

 Boise State University - FOCUS
But everyone tells me they are looking forward to "positioning" the university and to "displaying" the quality of the university in a way that has not been done before.
Therefore I think Boise State is perfectly positioned to present to the students it serves an international campus, an international curriculum, an international series of programs that prepares them for ways of life that are global in every way.
So that’s why we chose the university presidency and when I did it once and realized I wanted to do it again, then it was a question of finding the right place to do it.
