Yet studies investigating organizational change in higher education have predominantlyconsidered the university as the unit of analysis, a macro-level analysis[24]. In fact, researchers studyingeducational change in PEOs have called for more attention to the understudied meso-level of disciplines,departments, programs, and the schools and colleges within a university setting[52]. Fumasoli &Stensake[24] called for attention to departmental-level practices as, “factors of change…the [potential]link between the micro and macro” (p. 490

Armed with that information, the girls were askedto create a shoe that would be comfortable, practical and fashionable. Looking down the runway,12 teams competed for the best shoe, wearing their newly-made projects while walking a 20 footdistance in front of judges, who are female engineers. The shoes were judged on a variety ofcriteria including appearance, fit, cost to build, and structural integrity. Girls were able tochoose between a flat or high-heeled shoe. Some were
