FHEAP (Florida Higher Education Accountability Project)
is a networking higher education work group based in the Florida Panhandle.
FHEAP focuses on the root causes of the rampant Quality
Control problems in higher education in the South and Florida, including the need for accreditation reform, and
other institutionally-based structural problems faced in the South.
The unique historical context for education in
the South, its economic and political background, and its social cultures, have contributed to form special challenges found
only in the South. However, in addressing these special challenges, we have found an enormous hidden world of assumptions,
not only regarding education in the South, but also in the North as well (i.e., Northern Progressivism), and
going even deeper into the past, in the roots of Western culture itself.
Glen
S. McGhee is the Director of FHEAP. He has degrees in mathematics,
philosophy and a masters degree from Yale Divinity School.
For almost 10 years he taught at the community college level, and before that he was a community organizer for environmental
issues in New England and New York. His latest book is War in Heaven / Heaven on Earth:
Theories of the Apocalyptic (Equinox Publishing Ltd., London and Oakville,
2005), which he co-edited with Stephen D. O'Leary (University
of Southern California).
