The institutional purpose of the academy is relatively clear, but in the dynamic to fund research, and the institutions within which it happens, there is an obvious and growing tension. Commercial interest impacts the integrity of scholarship, though differently for different parts of the academy. That impact is an instance of institutional corruption, and the differences among the different parts of the academy are a source for understanding potential remedies. 

Introductory Remarks by Michael H. Schill, Dean and Harry N. Wyatt Professor of Law, The University of Chicago Law School.
