Discription:
Dwight D. Eisenhower’presidency of Columbia University (1948-1953) is among the least
written about periods of his career. It is all but dismissed by historians as a mere interlude
between his service as World War II’most celebrated general and his two terms as
president of the United States. His Columbia tenure was marked by extended absences from
campus and ongoing political speculation regarding a run for the White House in 1952.
Eisenhower in Command at Columbia disputes the conventional wisdom that
Eisenhower’Columbia presidency was unsuccessful. In fact, under his leadership,
Columbia moved forward in several important areas. Eisenhower’tenure at Columbia was,
nevertheless, difficult at times. His lack of both academic experience and a full understanding of
academic culture diminished his capacity to lead and damaged his credibility with faculty. While
the book brings historical perspective to Eisenhower’presidency of Columbia, its primary
purpose is to analyze Eisenhower’tenure in the context of higher education leadership. His
experience at Columbia is relevant today because it demonstrates the importance of
understanding institutional culture when leading a college or university. His selection as the
university’president reveals flaws in the process that still plague boards today in what is
arguably their most important job —elcting an institution’leader. This book will appeal
to scholars in higher education, history, and university administration, among others.
