A Dismissal in Virginia.
Healy, Patrick
Chronicle of Higher Education, v43 n36 pA29 May 16 1997
The firing of the director of the State Council of Higher Education for Virginia after a 20-year tenure and similar changes in other states have raised concerns that higher education policy boards face tightened political control. Some Virginia legislators feel the dismissal has left the council with little credibility, and substituted political issues for planning issues. (MSE)
