Frank Donoghue's The Last Professors examines how the growing corporate culture of higher education threatens its most fundamental values by erasing one of its defining features: the tenured professor. He also links the fate of the professor to that of the liberal arts, with the humanities at its core. Donoghue is an associate professor of English at the Ohio State University and the author of The Fame Machine: Book Reviewing and Eighteenth-Century Literary Careers. He earned his PhD from The Johns Hopkins University.
