Assignment: Culture of Change

In this assignment, you will have to rely on research you have gathered and read to support your assignment response. The readings should provide you with a broader perspective of various situations that institutions of higher education face today. Opinions alone are not acceptable for this assignment; you would need to validate your claims and assertions with relevant APA citations in the body paragraphs.

You may not have the experience of being the institution's president. Therefore, to support your responses to the questions listed, you would need to use two or three outside sources in your paper.

In addition to the information above, you should incorporate real-life examples to illustrate your points. The submission must be free of grammatical errors as well.

Tasks:
