Leadership changes in universities usually bring about philosophical and operational shifts within the institution. When these shifts involve resource allocation procedures, nursing programs are often highlighted because their costs appear great in comparison to traditional academic units. This was the exact situation at East Carolina University, a case history of which is presented here. Strategies for dealing constructively with this negative situation are outlined, as are lessons learned. A positive outcome required a thorough knowledge of funding processes, faculty involvement in generating solution alternatives, frequent and effective communication, and patience.
大学领导层的变动通常会在学校内部引发理念和运营方面的转变。当这些转变涉及资源分配程序时，护理专业项目往往会受到特别关注，因为相较于传统学术单位，其成本显得很高。东卡罗来纳大学当时正是这种情况，本文将介绍其案例。文中概述了建设性应对这种不利局面的策略以及从中吸取的经验教训。要取得积极成果，需要全面了解资金流程、教师参与提出解决方案、频繁且有效的沟通以及耐心。
