Abstract
In the context of The Academic Corporation: A History of College and University Governing Boards and The California Idea and American Higher Education: 1850 to the 1960 Master Plan, this review essay critically examines higher education governance. Although external governing boards and academic corporations have been invoked as one reason why higher education has flourished in the United States, a historical survey of national trends combined with California's higher education's heritage indicates some systemic problems of imbalance and unaccountability.
