Cooperating for Consensus: The Significance of the Cooperative Study in General Education

This work posits that the Cooperative Study in General Education, which operated under the auspices of the American Council on Education from 1937-1947 held special significance to the larger general education movement in American higher education. It presents a discussion of the movement as a quest for both institutional and societal consensus. It then argues that the Cooperative Study actively took part in this quest as well.
