"A former president of Indiana University writes a secret novel...about being a university president. Originally written under a pseudonym, The Search tells the story of Charlie Rosen, president of the fictional Nebraska State University. His antagonist is "Buddy" Knowland, legendary football coach at Nebraska State and also the athletic director.
