In most fields of endeavor including the private, government and not-for-profit sectors, there is a limit to how much meddling "senior management" can do before the job does not get done. Where is that limit in academe? Can prospective undergraduate students comparison shop based on the level of academic freedom at a particular college or university? It would seem that most prospective students are channeled, for better or worse, into the home state university system regardless of quality perceived or real.
