Abstract

Critic and conscience of society. Such are the dual roles espoused by many universities in their mission statements. But recent university audits in New Zealand have suggested that these roles tend not to be explicitly recognised, and that few formal structures are in place to support them. Jonathan Boston, in the lead article in this issue, suggests that only while universities remain non-commercial in nature can these roles be carried out effectively. A move to a more commercial ethos would not be compatible with such a legal requirement.
