State Policies and Planning to Increase Attainment, Quality, and Productivity
Lingenfelter, Paul E.
New Directions for Higher Education, n140 p29-39 Win 2007

It presents four "stories" which illustrate initiatives to improve attainment, quality, and productivity, but fall far short of exhausting the available material.
