Dr. Lane’s research agenda focuses on higher education governance, accountability, and politics. Through studies of higher education systems in Australia, Southeast Asia, and the United States, he has worked to understand and optimize the complex relationship between government and public higher education, particularly investigating how governance structures impact policy implementation. This scholarly agenda works toward developing institutional capacity, effective governance structures, and knowledgeable leaders and administrators. Dr. Lane is author of several journal articles and book chapters, has co-edited (with M. Christopher Brown) two monographs on institutional accountability (Examining Unique Campus Settings: Insights for Research and Assessment and Studying Diverse Students and Institutions: Challenges and Considerations) and is an associate editor of the forthcoming sixth edition of the ASHE reader: Organization and Governance in Higher Education. In 2006, Dr. Lane was selected as a policy fellow for WICHE's Escalating Engagement project funded by the Ford Foundation. He also writes an occasional column on legal and policy issues for the American College Personnel Association.
