Governance in Strategic Context
نویسنده
چکیده
To the experienced community college administrator, one message would seem clear: competition is on the increase among different institutions to meet the demands of a changing student population. Two-year colleges will require aggressive leadership and innovative approaches to governance if they are to maintain or increase their share of the student market. . . . The questions that must be faced by community college boards, faculty, and administrators are: To what extent will any changes or dislocations in the structure of postsecondary institutions affect governance in community colleges? How will decision makers anticipate and react to these changes? Will community colleges continue in their present form or will they extend beyond their current organization and deliver new services? Will they be selectively integrated with other sectors of education as pressure mounts for coordination in a period of austerity? [p. 200]
