Elitism and its Impact on the Expansion of University Education in Nigeria. A Philosophical Perspective
Abstract
Since the establishment of a University College at Ibadan, Nigeria in 1948, there has been a rapid expansion of universities across the country. The elites are seen to have played some prominent roles in the expansion of these universities. The paper identifies the elite group as dominated by the politicians, the military, the economic groups, the pressure groups and even public officials. The paper x-rays the impact of the elite class in the expansion process and proffers solutions where possible.
Key Words: Elitism, the university, pressure groups.
