Abstract: | At the Community College Futures Assembly, 3 critical discussion groups, each organized by an area of focus, conceptualized “New Rules” guiding the operation of community colleges. Utilizing 55 “New Rules for Business” provided by the keynote speaker Mark N. Vamos, each group identified 2–3 New Rules relevant to community college leadership in the future, suggested how they may be resolved, and then suggested areas for future research. Assembly participants were provided the opportunity to electronically vote as to which New Rules they felt were relevant to community college leaders in the coming years. Results were simultaneously displayed, allowing conference attendees to receive real-time feedback of the participant perceptions. |
