One of the measures which used to calculate the scholarly collaboration of countries and organizations is co-authorship. Co-authorship is a process in which two or more authors/researchers collaborate with each other to create a joint work via collaboration channels and methods. Although many studies have been considered individual or domain co-authorships, but the organizational aspect of this type of collaboration has attracted less attention. Therefore, the aim of this study is to draw the organizational co-authorships among Iranian medical universities and to analyze the role of proximity and Matthew effect in this collaboration. Thus, 32 medical universities were selected based …

America’s 4391 institutions of higher learning own roughly 240,000 buildings according to The Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching (2009) and the United States Green Building Council [USGBC] (n.d.). Most of these buildings’ designs reflect a time when energy was cheap and material abundant. Throughout the past century, building designs frequently ignored their surroundings, usurped energy at appalling rates, and did little to teach inhabitants respect for the environment (Fox, 2007; McDonough & Braungart 2002; Orr, 2007). As our colleges renovate and expand their facilities today, however, their activities reflect a decided shift in values. Over the past few …

This study discusses opportunities for municipal governments and university administration to work together to support local economic development in mid-sized university cities. It identifies the largely-neglected, but valuable, labour market that literally surrounds the campus in these cities, as places of opportunity. The paper suggests that the university campus provides a place in which effort to retain creative workers can emerge in cities that typically struggle to attract this workforce. It highlights an important role for Career Services in supporting local economic developmnet by opening doors to students' understanding of local opportunities. The empirical data presented in this paper was …

Each year many colleges compete to increase their national rankings within the academic hierarchy. As institutions make decisions and take actions with external rankings in mind, their pursuit of external prestige inevitably influences institutional members and stakeholders. The faculty experience of this pursuit of prestige, or institutional “striving,” is largely unknown. Through data from 29 interviews at one self-identified striving liberal arts college, this article examines faculty experience of institutional striving with attention to how faculty perceive the origins of striving, and its influence on institutional identity and direction, their own work-lives and reward systems.
