Sensemaking on Campus: How Community College Presidents Frame Change.
Eddy, Pamela L.
Community College Journal of Research and Practice, v27 n6 p453-471 Jul 2003
Describes the ways in which two community college presidents used framing to aid campus sense-making. Defines framing as the choice of one set of meanings over another, and sense-making as the process by which individuals interpret changes around them. Reports that the presidents chose frames that drove campus goals and subsequent strategies to reach those goals. (Contains 20 references.) (RC)
