2000 Science in Society Journalism Awards
Magazine
Eyal Press and Jennifer Washburn
Description
Eyal Press and Jennifer Washburn were honored for “The Kept University”, published in the March 2000 The Atlantic Monthly. The writers thoroughly assessed the issues surrounding industry involvement in academia, providing a tour de force of reporting and writing on one of the most salient science and society issues of today. By covering so much ground and recent history, it provides one-stop reading about the clash between profits and academic freedom and the perhaps unintended consequences of the Bayh-Dole Act. It is well backgrounded but also very readable, personalizing what could be a dry story by describing events, individuals and interest groups.
