摘要

摘要本文解释了地理在新英格兰高等教育中的有限存在是由于该地区高等教育体系的结构造成的。结合地理和教育文献的历史，它确定了控制类型(公立与私立)、机构类型、城市位置、多校区大学系统，以及地理在中学和社区学院中的弱势地位，这些都是影响地理本科专业存在的关键因素。文章还考虑了地理系普遍建立时的机会之窗，并提供了一些关闭地理系的机构的例子。

Missing Major: The Limited Presence of Geography in New England Higher Education

Abstract The article explains the limited presence of geography in New England higher education as a result of the structure of the region’s higher education system. Blending the geography and history of education literatures, it identifies type of control (public vs. private), institution type, urban location, multi-campus university systems, and the weak position of geography in secondary schools and community colleges as key influences upon the existence of an undergraduate major in geography. The article also considers windows of opportunity when geography departments were commonly established and provides selected examples of institutions that closed geography departments.
