education institutions must increase their instrumental role in adequately preparing young adults for working in the workplace (Brown, Hesketh, & Williams, 2003; Harvey, 2000). Other educators, even before Dewey (1916/1966), understood well the value of a clear relationship between education and work for enhancing education itself as well as citizenship and democracy. The practical reality in the twenty-first century is the relationship between education and work has changed in response to socioeconomic changes, and will continue to do so. The implication is that educational institutions wishing to succeed as both economic and scholarly enterprises need to chart clear pathways for their students, as well as for themselves, in ways that differentiate their student experiences from those of other educational providers offering similar services.
