It’s always interesting to read research into UK HE governance – the diversity of institutions makes it a rich environment to explore interesting issues.
So something that promises an exploration of cultures of governance was something I would want to read. Yet CBDU/Steven Jones’ University Governance: Views from the inside is a limited piece.
There are likely more than 3,000 HE governors in the UK – so interviewing 47, the majority of which are students or staff members, will not give a representative picture (and to be fair, it doesn’t claim to be.)
However, some of the statements made will ring true at some institutions.
