Title: COMMUNITY COLLEGE FINANCE: DEPARTMENT CHAIR PERCEPTIONS OF SELECTED FINANCIAL ISSUES AND RESPONSIBILITIES
Abstract: Community colleges are beginning to confront many of the same problems that 4‐year higher education institutions have been facing and continue to face, including financial constraints. The issues of enrollment, accountability, aging faculty, continuous quality improvement, and increased competition for students have created a need to give greater scholarly and practitioner‐centered attention to the issues of financial management and budgeting. This investigation provided an insight into 2‐year college departmental chairs’ perceptions of selected financial issues. Specifically, the study described sources of revenue for community colleges; the chairs’ perceptions of financial management roles, tasks, and challenges; and the strategies chairs use to work with financial challenges.
