THE EXPLOSIVE NEW BOOK FROM THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF NATIONAL POPULISM AND VALUES, VOICE AND VIRTUE.
Depressed tutors and disillusioned students. Cheating parents, funding crises, and faculty misconduct. Culture wars and campus protests. Welcome to the broken world of academia. Welcome to Bad Education.
A Broken System
Our universities are broken. Established as sanctuaries of truth and higher learning, they have become decaying institutions failing a generation of young people.
- Consumed by funding and admissions crises
- Dominated by dogma
- Governed by self-interest
Their founding principles have been corrupted. This explosive book reveals why this is happening—and what we must do to fix it.
An Insider’s Perspective
Matt Goodwin spent decades working as an academic in some of the world’s leading universities. His experience includes:
- Delivering underfunded courses to increasingly disengaged lecture theatres
- Sitting on rudderless committees
- Counselling depressed colleagues and concerned students
- Witnessing slipping standards and the decline of academic integrity
The Heart of the Crisis
At the core of this crisis lies an increasingly politicised campus. Once bastions of free speech, forums for open debate, and incubators of bold new ideas, universities are now:
- Becoming monocultures
- Ruled by an ideology that silences respected voices
- Stifling discussion and violently shutting down diverse opinions
- Betraying intellectual freedom
Unflinching, shocking, and urgent, this first-hand account offers an insider's view of how the founding principles of academia are in decline. It challenges us to reflect on what this means for the students of today, tomorrow, and the world they will shape.
