Smith, Donald T. – Review of Higher Education, 1993
Some organizational theorists use biological evolution as the theoretical base of their work. Many such theorists in business have applied a new view of evolution, that of punctuated equilibria, but those in higher education have not. The new theory has implications for leadership and change in college administration. (Author/MSE)

The use of selective, as contrasted with across-the-board, state funding as an incentive for program improvement in higher education institutions is discussed, and the experiences of four states (New Jersey, Florida, Ohio, and Tennessee) are examined for forces that work against the long-term feasibility of this approach.

Amey, Marilyn J.; Twombly, Susan B. – Review of Higher Education, 1992

Development…
