Closing the Accountability Gap for Public Universities: Putting Academic Departments in the Performance Loop

By: Joseph C. Burke

Accountability programs become increasingly invisible on campus below the vice presidential level and academic departments are often left entirely out of the loop. That creates a disabling disconnect among societal concerns, institutional goals, and departmental aspirations. Adopting feedback loops with common departmental indicators can enhance accountability without threatening the unique nature of higher education institutions.

From Volume 34 Number 1 | September–November 2005

Abstract: A fatal flaw in accountability programs is that they leave academic departments-the units most responsible for results-out of the performance loop. This article ties together institutional priorities and departmental performance through a limited list of common departmental indicators. It also links institutional aims and departmental aspirations through a planning process using institutional and departmental feedback loops, which convey performance information but also create new knowledge through dialogue on performance. This planning approach fixes a fatal flaw in accountability programs; a similar process at Florida International University shows it works in practice.
