Profiles in Courage of Community College Leaders AN ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION OF Mari Kruger for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Education presented on June 14, 2007. Title: Profiles in Courage of Community College Leaders. Abstract approved: George H. Copa The purpose of this study is to explore the lived experience of courage among community college leaders across the United States. The following questions guided the research: (1) What is the courageous experience like for a community college leader? (2) What is the process of courage development? (3) What are the internal and external conditions which are most likely to lead a community college leader to act courageously? The research design included a qualitative/interpretive methodology and instrumental case study method with nine community college leaders’ selected using purposive sampling. Overall themes that emerged characterizing the experience of courage were: (a) real risks, (b) reasoned choice, (c) call to act, (d) facing adversity, (e) loneliness and isolation, (f) staying power, (g) maintaining personal integrity, and (h) preservation. Embedded in themes were sub-themes of the courageous experience. Prior, present, and future time horizons comprised the conceptual framework of the development process of becoming courageous for leaders. The prior time horizon focused on fundamentals included past practice, value formation, and consistency. During the present time horizon, leaders moved through three phases, each phase comprised of several elements of courage development. Elements within phases included fear, taking responsibility, risk, and reasoned choice (Phase One); action, focusing of attention, adversity, suffering loss (Phase Two); and, fortitude under stress, management of controversy, and survival amidst challenges (Phase Three). Outcomes of moving through the phases of the present time horizon were self integrity, institutional sustainability, and self release. Finally, for the future time horizon, courage was found to be habit forming and had elements of reflection, coping, and a readiness for calling. The findings also included identifying internal and external conditions which were most likely to lead a community college leader to act courageously. Internal conditions were: (a) caring, (b) core values, (c) faith, (d) hope (with optimism), (e) humility, (f) perceived insight, (g) self-confidence, and (h) speaking up. External conditions were: (a) principles, (b) role models, and (c) supports. The study concludes that developing community college leaders who are ready when courage is called upon is an important challenge to higher education. ©Copyright by Mari Kruger June 14, 2007 All Rights Reserved Profiles in Courage of Community College Leaders by Mari Kruger A DISSERTATION submitted to Oregon State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Presented June 14, 2007 Commencement June 2008 Doctor of Philosophy dissertation of Mari Kruger presented on June 14, 2007.

Dr. Copa has been a steady captain providing expertise and guidance, showing human concern all along the way. I am indebted to the participants in my study for their willingness to share their stories. I am grateful as well to the observers of each case who shared their time to support my study and deepen my understanding both of the courageous leaders as well as the contexts. Each leader has inspired me and shown me how to practice courage. I thank the members of my committee: Dr. Larry Roper, Dr. Jessica White, Dr. Steven Rubert, and Dr. Pamela Transue for their time and energy which ensured that I had a solid foundation at the end of my coursework and deeply appreciate their efforts to make the project a scholarly piece of work. I am also indebted for Dr. George Boggs for his willingness to endorse my study and lend credibility to the work as I solicited nominations of courageous leaders. Leaders from across the country who took the time to nominate cases are likewise appreciated. I thank Steve Wall, who encouraged me to begin the doctoral adventure and provided steadfast interest and support. To my Community College Leadership Program (CCLP) cohorts who all became wonderful friends and an extended family, I thank you. I also thank the CCLP faculty for helping me learn how to be a contributing community college leader. I owe a special recognition to my friends, students and colleagues for cheering me on when I needed it most. Finally, I express incredible appreciation to my husband Mike Kruger for his sacrifice in order for me to embark and complete the journey.

    A Conversation with Mark Salter, Author of “The Luckiest Man: Life with John McCain” Join Michael Zeldin in his conversation with Mark Salter, Author of The Luckiest Man: Life with John McCain. Salter collaborated with John McCain on all seven of their books, including The Restless Wave, Faith of My Fathers, Worth the Fighting For, Why Courage Matters, Character Is Destiny, Hard Call, and Thirteen Soldiers. He served on Senator McCain’s staff for eighteen years. Guest Mark Salter Author of “The Luckiest Man: Life with John McCain” Mark Salter is an American speechwriter from Davenport, Iowa, known for his collaborations with United States Senator John McCain on several nonfiction books as well as on political speeches. Salter also served as McCain’s chief of staff for a while, although he had left that position by 2008. About the Book More so than almost anyone outside of McCain’s immediate family, Mark Salter had unparalleled access to and served to influence the Senator’s thoughts and actions, cowriting seven books with him and acting as a valued confidant. Now, in The Luckiest Man, Salter draws on the storied facets of McCain’s early biography as well as the later-in-life political philosophy for which the nation knew and loved him, delivering an intimate and comprehensive account of McCain’s life and philosophy. Salter covers all the major events of McCain’s life—his peripatetic childhood, his naval service—but introduces, too, aspects of the man that the public rarely saw and hardly knew. Woven throughout this narrative is also the story of Salter and McCain’s close relationship, including how they met, and why their friendship stood the test of time in a political world known for its fickle personalities and frail bonds.

  • {PDF EPUB} Why Courage Matters the Way to a Braver Life by John Mccain Why Courage Matters
    Read Ebook {PDF EPUB} Why Courage Matters The Way to a Braver Life by John McCain Why Courage Matters. Why Courage Matters: The Way to a Braver Life is a 2004 book by United States Senator John McCain with his frequent collaborator and aide Mark Salter. Published by Random House, it is mostly mini-biographies and mini-commentaries on others, but contains a small autobiographical element. Contents. See also References External links. The book followed McCain's two memoirs, Faith of My Fathers (1999) and Worth the Fighting For (2002). [1] McCain starts by saying that in contemporary usage people talk too loosely in characterizing acts as being courageous - it should be not only "the capacity for action despite our fears" but also involve a physical self-sacrifice for the benefit of others. [1] He says that during his time as a POW in North Vietnam during the Vietnam War, he relied on his fellow POWs for moral support but "I was not always a match for my enemies." [1] In press interviews for the book, McCain said that courage materializes when "our fear is overcome by our conscience and our beliefs and forces us to act." [2] Most of the book consists of his portraits of people, both leaders and ordinary people, he thinks have shown courage. [3] The book starts with the story of U.S. Special Forces soldier Roy Benavidez, who won the Medal of Honor for his actions during the Vietnam War. [4] Others whose stories are in the book include American civil rights leader John Lewis, American Indian chiefs Manuelito and Barboncito, explorer John Wesley Powell, Jewish resistance fighter Hannah Szenes, Burmese dissident Aung San Suu Kyi, Baltimore anti-drugs-crime mass murder victim Angela Dawson, and U.S.

  • Jerome Corsi's "Nonfiction Bestseller" Is Neither
    Jerome Corsi's "NonFiction Bestseller" Is Neither The publication on August 1 of Jerome Corsi's book, The Obama Nation: Leftist Politics and the Cult of Personality, has triggered considerable controversy in political and publishing circles, not only because the book is filled with many lies and distortions, but also because Corsi has long been affiliated with the nut-case wing of the conservative movement. Last Friday, John McCain exacerbated the storm when he responded to a reporter's question about the book by saying, "Gotta keep your sense of humor," which some observers took to be a casual endorsement of the book. Several anti-Obama books have recently arrived in bookstores, but Obama Nation is getting the most attention, in large part because it is so inflammatory and is being heavily marketed. The book's publisher has 475,000 copies in print, according to a company spokesperson. In contrast, the first serious liberal book about the Democratic candidate -- Robert Kuttner's Obama's Challenge -- is being released August 25 with a first printing of 75,000. Despite Obama Nation' s many lies and distortions, the book wasn't put out by an ideologically-driven right-wing publisher such as Regnery, but by the profit-driven Simon & Schuster, one of the country's largest and most respected publishers, now owned by CBS Corporation. Corsi has been interviewed on numerous TV and radio talk shows (both right-wingers like Sean Hannity and mainstreamers like Larry King). He and his book have been profiled in the New York Times (on the front page) and by other mainstream publications, lending credibility to Obama Nation's scurrilous claims.
