This 1997 edition of the Structures Sourcebook provides under one cover a basic reference document for those interested in the historical background, current status and emerging patterns of state higher education structures. An introductory essay overviews the changing structure of state higher education leadership, including the functions of coordination and governance, the evolution and current status of state structures, trends and issues, and guidelines for evaluation and reorganization. Tables show state-by-state legal status, responsibilities, membership, and staffing of state coordinating and governing boards and agencies.
