Olson ii ABSTRACT Archbishop Hoban High School changed from an all boys to a coeducational school in 1973. This case study looked at internal and external influences that led Hoban to change to a coeducational school. The research was guided by these questions: What internal and external influences played a role in the decisions that led Archbishop Hoban High School to change to a coeducational school? How did Hoban as an organization react to these influences? The theoretical framework for the study combined several strands of research: the history and philosophy of Holy Cross education; organizational theories of decision making and change; research on the culture of Catholic schools; and research on the social context of the 1960s and 1970s in the United States. This case study analyzed primary and secondary documents about the school’s history during the period from the late 1960s through 1973.
