Descripciones mejoradas de Syndetics:
Representing a major challenge to mainstream thinking about university governance while predicting dramatic changes in the governance of our colleges and universities, this book documents the pivotal role of the president in determining institutional quality. Fisher feels that one of the first steps needed to solve major problems confronting higher education today is the return of legitimacy to the presidency. All of the recommendations offered are within the guidelines of the classic governance document for colleges and universities, the 1966 AAUP Joint Statement on University Governance, as well as significant research on effective leadership.
