  • The Art and Craft of University Coordination
    THE ART AND CRAFT OF UNIVERSITY COORDINATION by James Thomas Barmby A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY in The College of Graduate Studies (Interdisciplinary Studies) THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA (Okanagan) December 2013 © James Thomas Barmby, 2013 ii Abstract The purpose of this study is to understand the apparent acquiescence of senior officials at Alberta‟s universities to legislation that might pose a threat to their institutions‟ autonomy. In 1975 the Alberta government under the leadership of Premier Peter Lougheed attempted to introduce a mechanism for coordinating university programs in the Adult Education Act by placing Alberta‟s four universities against their will within a system of provincial public post- secondary institutions. The 1975 Act failed to receive third reading due to successful lobbying efforts, yet in 2003 Lougheed's vision was finally realized with the passage of the Post- Secondary Learning Act (PSLA), which enlisted Alberta‟s four universities without resistance as members of a provincial system that coordinates post-secondary programming. A historical analysis, this study was framed within the dimensions of Wenger‟s Communities of Practice model to analyze the interaction and trust between and among senior university and government officials in their attempts to find agreement on matters concerning the coordination of university programming. The study found that, only where there was evidence of all three dimensions of the Communities
