Join us to hear Nicholas Hartlep, assistant professor of urban education at Metropolitan State University present his new book, The Neoliberal Agenda and the Student Debt Crisis in U.S. Higher Education.

Capturing the voices of Americans living with student debt in the United States, this collection critiques the neoliberal interest-driven, debt-based system of U.S. higher education and offers alternatives to neoliberal capitalism and the corporatized university. Grounded in an understanding of the historical and political economic context, this book offers auto-ethnographic experiences of living in debt, and analyzes alternatives to the current system.
