Faculty and Administrative Attitudes Toward and Expectations Concerning Recognized Collective Bargaining at College of DuPage as Compared with Empirical Findings.
Hansen, Barbara J.; Petrizzo, D. Richard
A study was made at the College of DuPage (Illinois) of the attitudes toward and expectations concerning collective bargaining held by college faculty and administrators. Data for the study were obtained by surveying 228 faculty and 44 administrators, of whom 105 and 37 responded, respectively. Results of analysis indicated statistically significant differences in the responses of the two groups, with faculty indicating a slight tendency toward agreement with or support of collective bargaining and administrators indicating a very slight disagreement with the concept of collective bargaining. No decided preference, either for or against the concept of collective bargaining, was expressed by either group. The survey findings were compared to the empirical findings of other major studies concerning collective bargaining. Areas examined were governance, quality of educational services, academic freedom, institutional climate, institutional autonomy, nature of administration, and economic benefits. Results of the comparison revealed that both College of DuPage groups held erroneous views in some of these areas. (JDS)
