Reflections on a 50-year career in higher education, most of it at Macalester College in St. Paul, Minnesota, where Wayne Roberts taught mathematics and served as provost. Roberts also started the Minnesota State High School Mathematics League, which currently has 165 member schools and over 2,500 participating students. Based on experiences n two-year colleges, liberal arts colleges, and research universities, the book suggests ways that Roberts thinks our good system of post-secondary education might be improved.
