Abstract

The article is a report of a qualitative study to determine whether Presidents of West Virginia higher education institutions maintain attitudes commensurate with goal statements contained in Senate Bill 547: a West Virginia legislative initiative that requires institutional compliance with various legislated goals. Findings of the study are presented in a brief, case study format for each President. In addition, a global assessment of Presidential perceptions with associated issues of compliance/noncompliance is presented.
