Competing conceptions of academic governance: negotiating the perfect storm
Tierney, William G.
Competing conceptions of academic governance: negotiating the perfect storm - Baltimore The Johns Hopkins University Press 2004 - xxxi, 228 p.
Today, institutional leaders face numerous struggles: intervention from boards of trustees, alumni, and state legislators; decline in financial support from the states; and competition in an increasingly global marketplace. While it is agreed that effective governance structures allow institutions to respond creatively to these challenges, how best to allocate control in order to maximize institutional efficiency, preserve academic freedom, and ensure institutional identity remains unclear. Increasingly, administrators look to non -academic institutions for governance and management strategies. (http://jhupbooks.press.jhu.edu)
