These categories are: the college's formal organizational characteristics, structures, processes, and practices; its culture; and its climate. This literature review aims to identify and clarify concepts related to this framework, identify organizational characteristics related to improvement of student outcomes, and refine the research framework. The review is divided into the following sections: (1) performance measures in higher education: effectiveness, efficiency, quality, and student outcomes; (2) organizational culture and climate: an external perspective; (3) defining culture and climate in higher education: conceptual confusion; (4) institutional strategy and student outcomes; (5) academic management practices: impacts on culture, climate, and student outcomes; (6) organizational characteristics: relationships to culture, climate and outcomes; (7) overview of organizational variables, practices, and characteristics; and (8) a conceptual synthesis: complexity or chaos. Both higher education and non-higher education literature is included. Five hundred and sixty-five references are included. (LB) Microfiche.
