Book Description
Many Philippine educational and political leaders believe the nation is facing a crisis in education. This study focuses on the struggle of educators to develop excellence in higher education. E. Nelson Swinerton analyzes educational policy issues both under consideration and in implementation. He examines the expansion of access; national and regional development; quality undergraduate and graduate education; faculty development; budgetary resources; educational leadership; and institutional and system policy planning and coordination. His analysis of major educational policies draws upon scholarly publications, field data, government reports, and personal interviews with many educational and governmental leaders from 1983 to 1990.

Philippine Higher Education: Toward the 21st Century analyzes key educational policy issues in the Philippines: broadening access, creating new university curricula, extending community outreach, upgrading faculty credentials, developing leadership, improving governance and budgetary procedures, responding to manpower and applied research needs, and developing an integrated system of higher education.

Book Description
This book investigates the dilemma of educating students for future work in the context of the Philippines, one of the top sources of migrant labor in the world. Here, colleges and universities are expected to not only educate students for jobs within the country, but for potential employers beyond national borders. It demonstrates how human capital ideology reinforces such export-oriented education, creating an assumed relationship among academic credentials, overseas opportunity, and future migrant remittances. Findings indicate that attempts to produce migrant workers undermine the job security of college instructors, skew local curriculum towards foreign requirements, and challenge efforts to develop academic programs in line with local needs. As more developing nations turn to migration as a development strategy, colleges and universities face increasing pressures to produce future migrant workers who will have an advantage over other nationalities. This book emphasises the importance of understanding how this global phenomenon affects colleges and universities, as well as the teachers and students within these institutions. This book raises important questions on the role of universities in today’s global economy and the effects of contemporary migration flows on developing countries.

Book Description
In view of the increasing number of Third World countries considering the establishment of women's colleges to meet the demand for the higher education of women, presenting a case study of two key women's colleges in the Philippines. Within the context of global, national and local changes since the fall of Ferdinand Marcos in 1986, academic and administrative leaders at two prestigious women's colleges candidly discuss how their respective institutions adapted to their environments and how the colleges will fare in the future. Preferences for large, coeducational institutions; the emergence of less expensive tertiary institutions; and the downward spiral of a weak national economy combined to destabilized the enrollment base of these colleges. Factors unique to the Philippines including an increasing number of female overseas contract workers; struggles with national language preferences; and the growth of feminism also affected the colleges. In response, the colleges expanded their curricula, chose high-profile presidents, focused on faculty development, and acquired technology. Decision-markers at these colleges will have to continue in their efforts at solidifying their positions in the Philippine higher education system. The book that women's colleges worldwide must articulate their unique purposes and collaborate with other institutions to strengthen their organizations.
