Who Decides Which Budgets To Cut?

Kissler, Gerald R.

Journal of Higher Education, v68 n4 p427-59 Jul-Aug 1997

Surveyed 744 administrators and faculty at 248 colleges and universities concerning how faculty influence financial and policy decisions, how faculty satisfaction with the decisions correlates with faculty influence, how these decisions are made, and how authority and influence shift during a financial downturn. Results suggest faculty influence did not diminish during retrenchment, but power became more dispersed. (Author/MSE)
