Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This dissertation examines the managerial roles and organizational status of the chief business officer in North Carolina community colleges, with the intended purpose of better understanding how the roles are performed. This study is conceptually framed with the managerial role theory of Baker, which was based on the work of Mintzberg. As a qualitative research study, interviews developed through the constant comparison method were conducted with six community college chief business officers (CBOs) in North Carolina, based on the following research questions: 1. How do CBOs perceive their managerial roles? 2. How do the perceptions of the CBOs correspond to the perceptions of the president and chief academic officer in their respective college? 3. How do CBOs perceive their place and status in their college? 4. How do the CBOs feel their roles and place in their college have changed over the course of their tenure in the position? The study's results, triangulated through document analysis and interviews with the CBOs' respective presidents and chief academic officers, show the perceived roles the CBOs performed and their status in their colleges. Labels for the roles were initially based on Baker's model and modified by the descriptions of the CBOs, who saw their roles as divisional or institutional, with a hierarchy of roles in each category and sub-categories of peripheral roles, variable roles, and core roles. Resource manager, liaison, problem solver, monitor and information clearinghouse were identified as core to both the divisional and institutional roles, with negotiator, visionary, ambassador, and advocate seen as peripheral roles, while the CBO was not found to be an agent of institutional change. Experience and longevity were identified as factors that positively affected the CBO's status, while also increasing the importance of the advisor role. Implications from this study include opportunities to expand the study of the CBO position and functions, an.

Download or read book College Rodeo written by Sylvia Gann Mahoney and published by Texas A&M University Press. This book was released on 2004-03-22 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Guts and glory, bulls and barrel racing, spurs and scars are all part of rodeo, a sport of epic legends. Cowboys and cowgirls use brain and brawn to contend for prizes and placement, but more often than not, it is the prestige of honorable competition that spurs them on. College Rodeo covers the history of the sport on college campuses from the first organized contest in 1920 to the national championship of 2003. In the early years of the twentieth century, a growing number of kids from farms and ranches attended college, many choosing the land grant institutions that allowed them to prepare for agricultural careers back home. They brought with them a love for the skills, challenges, and competition they had known—a taste for rodeo. The first-ever college rodeo was held at the Agricultural and Mechanical College of Texas. It offered bronco busting, goat roping, saddle racing, polo, a greased pig contest, and country ballads from a quartet. The rodeo was a fund-raising effort that grew enormously popular; by its third year, the rodeo at Texas A&M drew some fifteen hundred people. The idea spread to other campuses, and nineteen years later, the first intercollegiate rodeo with eleven colleges and universities competing was held in 1939 at the ranch arena of an entrepreneur near Victorville, California. Seldom does a college sport exist for eighty years without having a book written about it, but college rodeo has. Sylvia Gann Mahoney has written the first history of the sport, tracing its growth parallel to the development of professional rodeo and the growth of the organizational structure that governs college rodeo. Mahoney draws on personal interviews as well as the archives of the National Intercollegiate Rodeo Association and newspaper accounts from participating schools and their hometowns. Mahoney chronicles the events, profiles winners, and analyzes the organizational efforts that have contributed to the colorful history of college rodeo. She traces the changing role of women, noting their victories that were ignored by much of the contemporary press in the early days of the sport. College Rodeo highlights outstanding individuals through extensive interviews, giving credit to the pioneers of college rodeo. This book includes rare photographs of rodeo teams, champions, and rodeo queens, blended with the true life details of sweat and tears that make intercollegiate rodeo such a popular sport.
