other uses Original research date April 2009 Reform means to put or change into an improved form or condition to amend or improve by change of color or removal of faults or abuses, beneficial change, more specifically, reversion to a pure original state, to repair, restore or to correct. Reform is generally distinguished from revolution . The latter means basic or radical change whereas reform may be no more than fine tuning, or at most redressing serious wrongs without altering the fundamentals of the system. Reform seeks to improve the system as it stands, never to overthrow it wholesale. Radicals on the other hand, seek to improve the system, but try to overthrow whether it be the government or a group of people themselves. Rotation in office or term limits would, by contrast, be more revolutionary, in altering basic political connections between incumbents and constituents. ref On term limits reform see, http www.ustl.org index.html U.S. Term Limits .

Clark civil servant Ian D. Clark , David Trick and Richard J. Van Loon . Building on the 2009 book, Academic Transformation The Forces Reshaping Higher Education in Ontario , the authors start with the premise that the teacher scholar ideal pursued by individual universities has led to a model for under graduate education in Ontario that is financially unsustainable and does not provide the best possible education for undergraduate students. They draw from the literature on higher educationreform and on recent policy initiatives in the United Kingdom , Australia , Europe and selected American states and Canadian provinces to show that options are available for providing high quality education to an ever expanding number of students at a more affordable cost to both students and governments. Academic Reform explores ways to sharpen Ontario universities focus on undergraduate teaching and to increase the number of students attending institutions that focus on undergraduate education, without diminishing Ontario s ability to attract and retain university researchers of the highest calibre. The authors develop a model for teaching oriented undergraduate institutions that would complement traditional research universities.
