Julie Bruno, et al. open their article by stating the
importance of educators working together in order to bring together change initiatives,
creating a unified vision of how change initiatives fit together, and to ensuring
their collective success. Working together, in turn, requires trust and
goodwill.
This article is
helpful in claiming that collegiality—esp. a culture of trust and mutual respect—are necessary for
the success of what is a transformative moment for California Community
Colleges. The authors suggest a number of individual actions meant to improve collegial
relationships. I believe our next steps should be to take these ideas and extend them from
individual action to institutionalized policy.
