In the second of three podcast episodes, Andy Hibel talks with Professor Emeritus John Thelin from the University of Kentucky's College of Education.
Professor Thelin's teaching and research interests focus on the history of higher education and public policy. He likes to bring historical writing and research to contemporary discussions about significant, enduring higher education issues.
In this conversation, Thelin and Hibel discuss the Carnegie Classification of Institutions of Higher Education and how lesser-known institutions should receive more attention. They also talk about The Morrill Act of 1862 and the Morrow Plots, an experimental agricultural field at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign.
Hibel is a co-founder of HigherEdJobs and serves as its chief operating officer.
