The People Side of Privatization: Study Examines Employee Perceptions of Conversion Process.
Dillon, William L.
Business Officer, v29 n7 p31-34 Jan 1996
A study investigated the attitudes of college and university employees concerning the recent privatization of dining services at three universities. Results indicate the employees saw the contractor, not the institution, as benefitting most from the changes. Employees had little understanding of the benefits of the arrangement to the university or of the economic forces behind the decision. (MSE)
