This paper examines the effects of transformational leadership (TL) on student educational satisfaction (SES) and student stress (SS). Asian students enrolled in business management program at colleges and universities in British Columbia, Canada were surveyed to find out their perceptions as to whether TL used by faculty members improves SES and reduces SS. Results suggest that SES is positively related to the improvement in the level of perceived TL used by instructors/professors. The empirical findings of this paper also suggest that the reduction in the level of SS is related to the improvement in the level of perceived TL used by instructors/professors. However, TL does not mitigate the stress of graduate level students. This paper offers useful insights for instructors based on empirical evidence.

This study examines the impact of Asian student dependence on faculty to learn course material and student satisfaction with faculty support on their commitment to continuing study. Asian students enrolled in business management program at colleges and universities in British Columbia, Canada were surveyed to find out if the degree of their dependence on faculty to learn course material and their satisfaction with faculty support enhance their commitment to continue to study at their institute of higher education. Results show that the degree of students' perceived commitment to continuing study is positively related to the degree of student dependence on faculty to learn course material and their satisfaction with faculty support. The paper also offers useful insights for the North American colleges and universities based on empirical evidence.

How can universities build institutional partnerships through supporting community geography projects? This paper details the case of university members seeking to achieve a community goal of expanding Geosciences education opportunities, while also targeting a long-range goal of improving diversity within the university Geosciences. Over the course of one year, two Ph.D students collaborated with community members affiliated with a local middle school to design and organize the School of Earth, Society, and Environment (SESE) Geosciences Camp for Middle School Girls, held in August 2019. This paper deconstructs and critiques the camp organizing process and its outcomes. The conclusion addresses what worked and what did not as a model for future attempts at more sustainable institutional partnerships serving community geography projects.
