This essay comments on Stuart Henry's important contribution to our thinking about
the administration of interdisciplinary programs. Though I quibble with a few of the arguments
he makes in the last volume of Issues, I focus my remarks on adding to Henry's suggested
strategies for defending interdisciplinarity. I conclude with brief observations on the question of academic appointments and on teaching and learning.
