Abstract
This chapter follows from Chap. 6’s examination and discussion of national and state policies for higher education institutions. Three colleges within the states of California, Washington, and Hawai’i and one college and three universities within the provinces of British Columbia and Alberta are the focus for examination and explanation of organizational responses to policy at the national, state, and provincial levels. Attention is given to specific alterations in each organization over the period of 2000–2014. The chapter addresses not only organizations’ responses but also the outcomes of these responses.
