How Boards Lead Small Colleges
The authors, drawing on extensive experience with small private colleges, particularly those in rural areas and facing financial challenges, examine the crucial role of boards of trustees in the survival and success of these institutions. They analyze effective and ineffective governance practices, focusing on topics such as trustee selection, board meetings, the relationship between boards and presidents, strategic planning, and maintaining institutional stability. The book emphasizes that a board's leadership and financial acumen are paramount to a college's future, even more so than presidential effectiveness in some cases, and advocates for greater transparency and professionalization within boards. The authors also discuss the value of collaboration and adaptation in navigating the changing landscape of higher education, including the impact of technology and potential mergers.
