Good Morning, Brigid, at least on the east coast, U.S.A.! I run the Internet Culture Policy and Law Program at Cornell, icpl.cornell.edu<http://icpl.cornell.edu>, but have not really had much to do with ACUPA. You’re research sounds very interesting, however, and so I hope very much that they take you up on their offer!
And please always feel free to be in touch with me regarding any interest you might have in ICPL. Cheers, Tracy On Mar 28, 2014, at 2:39 PM, Brigid Freeman <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> wrote: Dear all, I recently led some research (kindly with the assistance of many participants on the ACUPA discussion list), of United States higher education institutions approach to policy (definitions of policy, the policy cycle, management of policy, policy infrastructure, evaluation and review etc). The research was conducted with Andy Goldblatt (UC-Berkeley) and Nancy Cappell (formerly of UCOP) whilst I was a visiting scholar at the University of California - Berkeley, and American Council of Education (ACE) in Washington, DC. The research is part of a broader project looking at policy in higher education institutions in several countries (including the US, Papua New Guinea and New Zealand). This broader project is being conducted with Prof. Tracie Mafile'o (PNG), Miskus Lapan (PNG) and Sue Thompson (New Zealand). All of the people interviewed in the United States (and New Zealand; PNG interviews will be done in the next 2 weeks when I am in Port Moresby/Madang) indicated that they would be interested in the outcomes, particularly those arising from the US element of the research. We committed to sharing these progressively as the research outcomes are considered, analysed, published and circulated. We would be very interested in presenting at the ACUPA conference, particularly focussing on policy in the United States (and any key lessons from elsewhere with potential transferability to the US).

Although many policy offices seem to be focused on process, ours is also very involved with product. I know we're not alone in this, especially in the review stages, so research techniques would be of interest as well. Of course, since these areas are what I'm interested in, I might decide to submit a proposal ... Because that's how I learn.
