Sustaining Institutional Performance in the Midst of Turmoil: the Role of Community-Based Planning

Presenter(s): Bill Becker and Dan Walleri, Mt. Hood Community College
Convener: Bob Ross, Brigham Young University

One of the centrifugal forces that can affect a campus is conflict between a president and the faculty over governance and collective bargaining. It is generally assumed that when such conflicts cannot be controlled or contained, institutional performance will decline. This case study illustrates how institutional performance can be sustained even in the face of intense internal conflict. Since the case in question involves a community college, community-based planning played a critical role.
This knowledge resource from SCUP is a concurrent session presented at the Society's thirty-sixth annual, international conference and Expo, SCUP–36, in Boston, MA (USA), in July of 2001.

Audiocassettes of this and other SCUP–36 sessions are available for purchase here.

Due to our concern for the privacy of members of the face-to-face audiences at SCUP-36, our digital archives of SCUP-36 presentations end at the beginning of the question and answer portion of each session. Whenever we can, we not only provide streaming audio but the slide show or visual presentation used by the presenters, as well.
