Jerry Farber

Jerry Farber is an American educator and writer. Currently a professor of English and Comparative Literature at San Diego State University, he is widely known as the author of a 1960s anti-establishment essay, "The Student as Nigger," in which he likened the student–professor relationship in American universities to that of slave and master. This piece, based on his experience as a teacher and as an often-arrested activist in the civil rights movement, served as the title essay of his first book. Subsequent books were The University of Tomorrowland and A Field Guide to the Aesthetic Experience. Since then he has published essays that include "Learning How to Teach: A Progress Report," "The Third Circle: On Education and Distance Learning," "Aesthetic Subjectivity and the Teaching of Literature," and "What Is Literature? What Is Art? Integrating Essence and History."

San Diego State University

San Diego State University (SDSU), founded in 1897, is the largest and oldest higher education facility in the greater San Diego area (generally the City and County of San Diego), and is part of the California State University system. It is the third-oldest university in the California State University system, and one of the oldest universities in California. SDSU has a student body of more than 33,000 and an alumni base of more than 200,000. The Carnegie Foundation has designated the institution a "Doctoral/Research University - Intensive," and the campus offers bachelor's, master's, and doctoral degrees (Ph.D. and Ed.D) in a total of 151 fields. SDSU is the largest university in San Diego and the third largest in California. It offers the most doctoral degrees of any campus of the California State University system, currently in sixteen (16) academic and research disciplines.

History and Important Facts

With more than a century of achievement in education, research and service, and with an enrollment of more than 33,000 students, San Diego State University (SDSU) has grown into the largest institution of higher education in the southern California region and one of the largest in California. Renowned for its academic excellence, the university is home to many top-ranked academic programs. One in seven (7) San Diegans with a college degree attended SDSU, making SDSU a primary educator of the region's work force, as well as a leader in expanding access to higher education. Committed to serving the diverse San Diego region, SDSU ranks among the top ten (10) universities nationwide in terms of ethnic and racial diversity among its student body, as well as the number of bachelor's degrees conferred upon minority students. Increasingly recognized for innovative research, SDSU has achieved the prestigious Doctoral/Research University-Intensive designation, granted by the Carnegie Foundation to the top 6.7 percent of the nation's research-conducting universities. SDSU faculty consistently attract hundreds of millions of U.S. dollars annually in grants and contracts for research and program administration, and SDSU's research and graduate degree programs lead all other campuses of the California State University system. Private giving to SDSU is also rising dramatically, reaching record levels in recent fiscal year. Because state funds provide only about one-third of the SDSU's annual operating requirements, with tuition and fees not adding much more, the support of alumni, friends and community partners is providing a crucial margin of excellence at SDSU, enabling the university to fulfill its mission and expand its service to the San Diego region and beyond. Perhaps the most visible evidence of SDSU's continuing growth is a recent flurry of campus construction on 'Montezuma Mesa' (as the SDSU campus is locally know). New facilities completed in the past few years, totaling more than two hundred million U.S. dollars ($200,000,000.00), include Cuicacalli, a dining and residence complex; the [http://www.chemistry.sdsu.edu/facilities Chemical Sciences Laboratory], a showcase of leading-edge laboratories and infrastructure; a 2,458-space parking structure, the largest in the California State University system; and the Aztec Athletics Center, housing coaches' offices, training facilities and the Wise Foundation Hall of Fame. Other recent construction projects on the SDSU campus are the [http://www.sdsutrolley.com SDSU underground trolley station and tunnel], part of the famous San Diego trolley system (see [http://www.sdcommute.com/Rider_Information/Trolley/trolleymap.asp map] and [http://www.sdcommute.com/Rider_Information/trolley/index.asp San Diego trolley system information]).
