From the Paper:

"Dickinson's [1999] conclusions were consistent with previous studies by Altschuld and Armenakis. To her, the overall driving force of change organization was specialization, a need that corresponds with the industrial era. Faculty members at community colleges today must conform to the need of the graduate practical life and hence must direct their training to specific fields of work at the departmental levels. She quoted Cohen (1992, p. 161) "with rare exception, the [community college] faculty tend to teach in the same ways, to the same number of students, for the same number of hours as their predecessors did a generation ago.""
