Plinske, Kathleen; Packard, Walter J.
Community College Review, v37 n4 p291-312 2010
Although the authority for hiring a community college president resides with the board of trustees, few studies have directly explored trustees' perceptions of the desired qualifications for presidents. Using a Delphi process, this study identified the characteristics, competencies, and professional experiences that Illinois community college trustees value in presidential candidates. (Contains 1 table, 1 figure, and 1 note.)
