Increasing Effectiveness of the Community College Financial Model: A Global Perspective for the Global Economy depicts the challenges and responses of community college financing in an era where funding has declined. The theoretically-based chapters highlight issues of leadership, governance, and financing models for institutional change. The case studies profile success stories from community colleges around the world.
Edited by Stewart Sutin, Daniel Derrico, Rosalind Latiner Raby, and Edward Valeau, this book appeals to community college stakeholders and those interested in and committed to strengthening and sustaining the financial conditions of community colleges and their global counterparts. It offers new perspectives about ways that community colleges can and do develop cultures of financial self-reliance in an era of declining government appropriations and worries about affordable tuition for students. Moreover, this is one of the few books dedicated to the topic of community college finance and is the first book that examines this issue in a variety of community college global counterparts around the world.
