Reviews

The story of Plymouth State University is a story of institutional transformation through the willingness to take risks and embrace change. Leaders at all levels have created a leaner, more focused institution through the integration of systems and processes-integration that can serve as a model for other institutions, both public and private. -Betsy Barefoot, Gardner Institute for Excellence in Undergraduate Education Redesigning Higher Education: A Small New England Public University Changes Higher Education situates change and innovation within a particular organizational narrative and context. The authors demonstrate the collaborative spirit they strongly promote by exploring the intersection of theory and practice as it unfolds on their campus. -Brent Sleasman, President, Winebrenner University
