...levels. The first concerns the sanctity of the Ivory Tower itself, which Bok skillfully goes to great lengths to defend. His discussion of the ideal of the university's "four essential freedoms" is stirring and convincing, if not refreshing. The second level focuses on the methods the university should employ to both safeguard those values and exert positive influence on society.
