just go the university of pennsylvania had 10,000 undergraduates and 10 dozen graduate students. we have about 4500 faculty members. we ran three hospitals and we have a great school of medicine as well as a great school of arts and sciences. we have 32,000 employees with the largest private employer in philadelphia. we like to think of ourselves as ben franklin university, a university which is elite, but not of the disappeared were not an ivory tower. we believe in integrating two social impact of and economic for our city, for region and for the country in the world. >> host: by the way, since the original location? >> guest: now, we are in university city in west philadelphia. kind originally started in a very small downtown philadelphia and moved in university city, which we've helped make into a via brad arts and culture and economic club. >> host: once again, here is the book. it is "the spirit of compromise: why governing demands it and campaigning undermines it". amy gutmann and dennis thompson are the co-authors. this is booktv on c-span 2. >> if you want to compare peo

as an undergraduate and studied film. i was going to be a filmmaker. and then i went into anthology because i could have my cake and eat it too. anthropology is an area where i could make films and could be part of my identity. if i was a sociologist or political scientist or literature professor, i could make film maybe as a hobby, but didn't have the long history of anthropologists using this equipment, using filmmaking as a part of doing research. so i thought i can still make movies and also do them in a context where i have license to go out and find out things about the world. the one thing howard wasn't able to teach me, using film -- now they're doing things digitally. it's film quotes. we're still using 16-millimeter film back then and changing film magazines in a black bag, and so i knew how to make a film but i felt like i was this kid from brooklyn that didn't know enough about the world, and i thought anthropology would allow me to learn more about the world. and that's how i ended up at anthronothing columbia. >> host: what did your paren

do you remember the head porter here when you were an undergraduate? ted temple? his son's the head porter now. yes. i never went to university but my sergeant here tells me that head porters pick up all sorts of tittle-tattle. i had a one-night thing with a newly married lecturer. gwen raeburn? and we took some rather explicit souvenir photos that went missing from my room. did ted temple steal them, by any chance? that's what i suspected, but it was the last day of finals too late to do anything about, too soon to be worth ted's while to blackmail me. until his son got his hands on them. yes. the night before last i gave him a black eye instead of the money he wanted and took the photos back. unfortunately he'd held on to a couple d passed them to arnold in revenge. and that's why he's conducting tonight. mm, and won't be endorsing my appointment as music director of the pacific symphonia. it was 30 years ago. lewis: hold on, please, mr. temple. perks of the job? temple: do you know how much college servants get paid? babs is near enough on the minimum wage. yea

as a undergraduate and went to howard university then i went into anthropology where i could make a film set if i was the sociologists are political scientist thought that i could do it as a hobby but to use this fairway they do with anthropological research that i could make the movies but also to go out to the world but what howard could not teach me but we were still using 16 mm film that does this kid doesn't know about the world go out and learn? that is how i ended up in anthropology. >> host: what did your parents to? >> guest: my mom and dad both were working class, both in the medical profession they both worked in bellevue hospital as a dietary aide. my mom went back to school to get her college degree to become a social worker. they were continuing the struggle so to this day tried to better themselves to gain more knowledge from any crevice that they could so i got that you never try to stop learning for what you can do to be productive so say model that as a dietary aide dennis social worker to build a life. >> host: where did you get your ph.d.? >> guest: columbia. 2001 the

that was my introduction to bill buckley well i was an undergraduate. and a friend of mine until he passed away. the last time it took the train to washington was to see bill but it signed a lease to take it all the time and i always enjoy riding the train and the problem was you had to go through new york. rival is reminded of the little girl who tries to say the lord's prayer to said lead us not to penn station or. [laughter] truer words were never spoken i did read "witness" shortly after it came out as i was a sophomore i have reread it many times cents as it takes careful study and i approach it as the new book that i co-authored that chambers emerges as a central character that was not my intention. but the more realized chambers was a critical figure with too many senses to list. with the tremendous gift of language for history of the domestic coal. he himself was a primary source and you have to go to the primary source it is risky to rely on secondary sources. also is a guide there are benchmarks as i delved into something myself i realize thes

the rest of financial aid for undergraduates.omberg has given more than $1 billion to the inner-city where he graduated in 1964. >> and now your 11 insta- weather-plus forecast with john collins. >> quick check of the radar. again, some flurries west of town, along the potomac river. up into pennsylvania coming off the great lakes. earlier, it was the weather impulse that was producing the snow showers, primarily from baltimore westward. now this appears to be related to remnants of a lake effect, or a hybrid. it is not as no accumulator. 34 was the high. temperatures still below the average. a little warmer than it has been. the morning low yesterday was 20. tomorrow morning will be colder than that. overall trend -- here is the normal high. 42 to 41 degrees. we have been below that mark. next week we are going to take a boost on temperatures. least temporarily. it is still january. 26 now in annapolis. cambridge 28. 25 on the boardwalk. 21 at alton. 23 in frederick. it is dropping into the teens in western maryland. a few more

and even before that, when i was an undergraduate, i knew hillary.he was an undergraduate. >> did you go out on a date with hillary clinton? is that the buzz? >> i think i did. >> does bill know? >> yeah. she was president of her freshman class and i was president of my sophomore class at dartmouth. and the only way i could think was to suggest a presidential summit. >> his summits nowadays are on the cal campus though he's still a wanted man in washington. the 66-year-old reich is old enough to know how our economic system is flawed yet young enough to still want to fix it. are you fed up with what's going on on capitol hill or is it something you say, you know what, i've been dealing with this for decades? >> it's worse than it has been in living memory. there's more partisanship, more gridlock. >> president obama has done some great things. he hasn't brought the two sides together. he can point fingers at republicans, but what does he lack in not delivering cohesiveness? >> i think the president has done almost as well as he could. it's a miracle

>> often times especially from undergraduates, so? that is the world they grew up. first-year students were born 1992. so the way the media operates is then to understand the new world but many of them are interested to be a journalist also through communications and media but that would be different in five years from now. >> host: we talking with the dean of vandenberg school of communication from the university of pennsylvania, "after broadcast news" media regimes, democracy, and the new information environment" co-author bruce williams. michael x. delli carpini. thank you for being with us on the tv. >> host: 10 things congress does not want you to know how it does business. number four, to be unsafe noncompetitive season holds fund-raisers outside their districts to increase leverage over other members. number five, congress spends more than $100 billion every year on 200 programs that are not authorized by law. number six, congress routinely raids the social security trust fund to cover general revenue shortfalls. >> guest: looking at the appropriation bills a

about 28,000 undergraduate students attend there, 65% of them are part-time.. we have no idea how many students were inside or on campus when these shots were fired. the campus literally fits outside the george h.w. bush international airport. and it's focused on leading edge technology. again, bill, i thought what you were saying was interesting. the security on campus makes sense and by definition so much less than in a grammar school or high school, because we're looking at the aerial shots from our affiliates chopper hovering overhead and you can see how many wide open spaces there are. you can't lock every door, that would be gridlock. >> and also screening people coming on to the campus not just for a matter of who they are, but whether or not they're carrying any weapons or anything like that would be extremely challenging. that's why he they rely so much on the emergency notification systems and have the people stay in place as they try to resolve the cases that have occurred in the past and tragically have taken many lives. so, i think in this case, w

the this program teach undergraduates leadership skills while keeping the focus. student achievement guided by experience. joining us is executive director margie weingrow. i love what you do. it's hard to keep kids in college. if they don't have resources or support and your program provides that? >> it does. scholars program works with very low income students, students in poverty. they get to u.c. berkeley where there is over 34,000 students. as you can imagine, fish out of the water there. not only the academic load but the fact this that they have to work while going to school, there is so much going on with them academically dealing with financial aid and all of that not focused on where they need to be when they leave school which is very short period of time. this is real problem at universities now. students are coming into the university and prepared for their academics but not for the professional world. >> there is a lot of stuff, it's more than just staying in school. it's about professional development and personal skills. >> it's much more than that

here at stanford and at other elite universities, undergraduate tuition plus room and board for a year is about $54,000. at berkeley, a public university, it's around $30,000, depending on where you live. the big question is, at do you get for that money that a free line course won't give you? >> i don't think that you can give a stanford education online the same way as i don't think that facebook gives you a social life. >> reporter: susan holmes is a professor of statistics at stanford. she fears that budget-conscious colleges may use online education to replace instructors and save money. >> people will think it'lle much cheaper to hire people who aren't trained with ph.d's and make the student watch courses and use graduate students, or even undergraduates, as advisors. >> reporter: but even more important, holmes is worried that moocs could damage a key university goal: providing a liberal arts education where students learn to write and express themselves, and that is done with interaction with the students. the professors meet with the students, advise the students, and the stu

. >> a record number of applicants for undergraduate admission. 8.6% rise in applicants from last year for a totele of nearly 175,000. that includes fresh men and transfer students. they're seeing a surge in foreign applicants up 45% and for the first time latino students are the largest in state group applying for freshman spots at 32%. >> a federal overseer says it's too soon for california to retake control of the prison mental health system. last week you'll remember that governor brown argued our state has done enough to reform the system and should be allowed to resume control. today they said too many california inmates are still committing suicide and going without treatment for mental illness. the 609 page report was written before governor brown's proposal last week. >>> new information tonight on the bar pilot involved in this month's crash of a oil tanker into a bridge. he was guiding that tanker january 7th when it hit one of the bridge piers. he had three other incidents in his 7 years on duty. that's the second worst record among the 15 local bar pilots. the pilot licens

edwards, my father, addressed a large audience of undergraduates in princeton, the evening before alger hiss was scheduled to speak at the university about u.s. foreign policy. alger hiss on foreign policy. what else can one say about princeton's invocation but once politically correct, always politically correct. here are some of the things edwards said to the assembled students, quote, you will be observing as brilliant, as an adroit commack as charming personality as i have witnessed in more than 30, as charming pe as i have witnessed in more than 30 years of newspaper experience. he was convicted by a jury of willful perjury to conceal his role as a traitor and a spy. edwards recalled that in his first appearance before the house committee on american activities, alger hiss in dignity -- indignantly denied allegations that he would communist, quote, i never witnessed a more convincing display of righteous wrath, my father said, as alger hiss swore he never laid eyes on whitaker chambers. he blinked at a photograph of chambers in utter amazement. less than a month later alger hiss co

about the day -- and this is maybe in a five-year period, maybe 15% of the courses taken by each undergraduate would be online. >> reporter: while the governor says online courses will streamline costs, others don't think it will. it's that flop you mentioned earlier. recent reports say u.c. systems spend more than $4 million in marketing in online courses to anybody outside the university. since it started last year, only four people have signed up and some say it's just smoking mirrors. >> you spend a lot more money on administration, on equipment, on staff, on various things related to the technology and you actually take money away from instruction education. so i'm afraid it's a recipe for administrative bloat. >> reporter: many in the meeting actually thank governor brown for finding $10 million in the budget for increasing online education. no comment from the governor or anyone from the regents in terms of the marketing efforts. but there will be another meeting scheduled for next tuesday in the ucla to see how they will streamline online education. we're live from ucsf, i'm brian flor

>> well, there is a very interesting poll that was taken by our undergraduate newspaper at the end of the academic year last year asking students about to graduate what most of them were doing and what they wished they were doing. and the job mentioned of those going into the workforce, some were going off to graduate school and law school and medical school, but those going into the workforce, the job most identified as the one they were going to pursue in the immediate term was something in financial services or consulting. but when students were asked what they wished they were going to do, the highest answer was a career in the arts. and i find that so interesting. i think it speaks the spirit of creativity, of innovation that we see in the arts, in engineering which is ground dramatically at harvard, students who wanted to go in the arts haven't quite figured out how to do it. i find that intriguing. >> i want to ask you one more question because i know you're a civil war scholar. what do you make of the at tension steven spielberg's film "lincoln" has been getting? obviously we'

the rest in financial aid to undergraduate students.urg graduated from johns hopkins in 1964 and has given over $3 billion. >> one man has already had a bone marrow transplant but the monsignor is in need of another and anyone between 18-44 can be a donor. >> i want to be able to help somebody else. that was the idea. there's people out there that it's not a big deal. but it is. it's not all that difficult to be a donor, and you can save a life. >> the information from the drive will be kept on a register is industry called "be the match." participants will be notified if there is a match. >> do you know what your numbers are? learn what your bloop numbers are and how to tell if they are low or high. >> and what's -- from counterfeit memorabilia to phony tickets, the better business bureau is here with more on what ravens fans need to be on the lookout for. >> it's 7:17 and 21 degrees on tv hill. in this morning's "medical alert," high blood pressure often does its damage without causing symptoms. that's why you should know your numbers

can imagine that's true -- well, first of all, often times the reaction i get, especially from undergraduates, is, so? because the world we're describing is a world they grew up with. i mean, the first year students that arrive at school like penn were born in, what 1992. they grew up with this world. and so it's less -- it's almost as if they want to know more about what the old world that you and i would think of as the way the media operates was like than try to understand this new world we're in. but bus we're a communication school, they are obviously thinking, many of them are inside being journalists. when -- they're not in journalism school but want to contribute to society through communications and the media. so i think their issues are, where do i do that five years from now, ten years from now? >> you're watching booktv on c-span2. we have been talking to the dean at the university of pennsylvania whose most recent back is "after broadcast news. media regimes, democracy, and the new information environment." dean michael x.delli carpini. thank you for being on book tv on c-span. >

undergraduates, who cares. it is research money that counts.ve an educator. -- we no longer have an educator. it is a shame, you mentioned that teachers should be at the top. that would be wonderful. i am not a teacher. i am a researcher. host: we will have to cut you off there. guest: if we are very truthful to ourselves in the large research universities, we put so much of this is on research that we do not put as much emphasis -- so much emphasis on research that we do not put as much emphasis o-- these are large engines. a lot of people say, you are supported by the people of ohio. i am so proud to be in ohio. we have a great governor. we of great support in our legislature. our budget is about 8% from state support. you have to be certain that students and others have the ability to come here to the cost structure. -- due to teh cohe cost structu. this is a new era. this is a new opportunity for us to change our culture. it is something that we have to do. these recommendations are essential. host: president gee, thank you for being on the

i tell the graduate students and the undergraduate students that economics more than anything else, ithink, it's a way of thinking. it's a way of reasoning. it's the logic. and i want them to be able to apply economics to every day appearances to be able to think systemically and logically. that's -- i think that's the job of an economics professor. >> host: when do they discover you're tough? >> guest: well, i think that -- well, to give you an idea, for my class this spring, this semester, it starts at 7:30 in the morning. and so, you know, getting up at 7:30 is character build with and so i get students who at least have enough stick to it to get up consistently at 7:30. and i tell the students the first day of class, i say, look, this is the class starts at 7:30, even the cold dais of winter, it starts at 7:30 with it is snowing and nice days in april and may when you would rather lay-in bed. and i tell them, these are the requirements. and also, i give unannounced quizzes. that five or six unannounced quizzes. i tell the students in the beginning of the semester each day you come

these reforms are working, because over the last two years, we have had over 3800 new slots for undergraduate, in-state students. best of all, tuition increases averaged only 4% this year after a decade of double-digit tuition increases. that is good news for our young people. [applause] i am sure you agree, more diplomas' means more jobs. we increased the percentage of k-12 funding going into the classroom to 64%, heading to 65%. graduation rates are up, dropout rates are now at the lowest level in a very long time. they have fallen more than 25% in the last five years. last session we ended social promotion to the fourth grade for our young people that cannot read well. there are now more stem teachers and more programs and less bureaucracy in our schools. we are also making good on our progress to clean up the chesapeake bay, and meeting our goals under the watershed implementation plan that i signed a couple of years ago. in 2011, our major waste-water facility exceeded pollution reduction goals by more than 2000% for nitrogen and 450% for phosphorus. we rank second in the nation for redu

shouldn't they learn to de program what these kids get as undergraduates. they are given all of this stuff. instead of paychecks they get this academic brainwashing from the tenured radical [bleep]. >> i don't even know what you said. you are talking about having more of a voice. >> the problem is not the students. the problem is the professors. the good news there is most of the tenured professors are part of the baby boom generation which thankfully the tables are going to take care of them very soon. as they pass from the scene there is hope for the students. >> especially if you unleash millions of cats on campus and train them to kill the professors. that's not just an idea. >> i want to be clear, i didn't say that. you said that. >> i'll give you an example of how the voice fills the void. remember georgetown law student? she weighed into the health care debate saying reproductive legality for contraception needs to exist. and i didn't know there were that many college students who really cared a hoot about that issue before. the minute she started so
