Women's Colleges in Massachusetts: Responses to Enrollment Declines.
Gueverra, Jonathan
Review of Higher Education, v24 n4 p351-68 Sum 2001
Examined enrollment declines at three single-gender institutions in Massachusetts, asking: What strategies did they use in responding to enrollment decline? What planning-related factors were instrumental in aiding recovery? Found that each employed different responses and planning processes; two reversed the decline. Faculty and administrator leadership played a role in recovery. (EV)
