520 |a The extent to which formal campus leaders shared consistent goals was investigated during 1986-1987, along with the relationship between presidential communications and goal consistency. Four concerns were examined: the expressed goals of college presidents; the extent of agreement (goal consistency) or disagreement (goal diversity) between presidents and other campus leaders; organizational characteristics that are related to goal consistency or diversity; and how campus constituents see and experience their presidents as creating and/or communicating goals and how this perception is related to goal consistency or diversity. For the sample of 32 colleges and universities, interviews were conducted with 119 formal campus leaders: 26 board chairpersons, 32 presidents, 29 academic vice presidents, and 32 faculty leaders (faculty senate presidents or faculty union presidents). Analysis of the content of the 119 responses led to the development of seven categories of goal: qualitative, quantitative, access/equity, educational program, special interest, institutional process, and external relations. Five data tables are included. (SW)
