This paper examines the feasibility of higher education professors using the college novels of C. P. Snow in their classrooms. The discussion focuses on “closed politics” as the setting of the novels and on the facets of organizational behavior exhibited by two academic characters. The discussion also presents instructional strategies that were instrumental for promoting teaching effectiveness when Snow’s college novels were used in the formal study of higher education.
