A Creature of Our Own Making
Determining Public 2-Year College Faculty's Intent to Leave
Using data from the 1999 National Study of Postsecondary Faculty, this study examines the extent to which demographic variables, the quality of worklife, and satisfaction have an impact on community college faculty members' intentions of leave.

Faculty Members' Intentions to Leave
Academic Deans and Directors
The intent of this study is to present a systematic approach for evaluating the leadership effectiveness of deans and directors.

Faculty members ar…
