| Abstract | No one should presume to tell a college or university what its governance structure should be. In fact, there is no "general" model of governance, shared or otherwise, that can be replicated from place to place. Each institution is differently situated with respect to its history and mission; its size; the number and nature of its programs; its relationship to local, state, and national governments; its legal obligations and attendant dangers; its mechanisms of funding; and so on. Nevertheless, while there may not be a general scheme of governance to which all should conform, there are general, and even philosophical, considerations that will pertain to any conversation about governance. In this article, the author examines the issue of shared governance in institutions of higher learning, coming to the conclusion that this type of democratic ideal, while useful in some cases, is not generally appropriate as a standard and benchmark in academic life. Instead, it is important to remember that questions of governance are logically independent of questions of mission and thus no particular form of governance has a privileged status with respect to academic goals.
