The flagship university in your state recently completed a new state-of-the-art student center, complete with bowling alleys, fast-food outlets, group study space, and the latest green technology. shortly after it was finished, almost every other university in your state began clamoring for a new student center, too. how would the theory of institutional isomorphism explain this?

Universities operate in the same environment and therefore end up looking alike.

Explanation:

          Isomorphism is a term used in sociology to define a structure or organisation to look similar with other structure as an imitation or constructed in the same manner.

          Institutional isomorphism means two or more institutions having the similar structure and having similar standards.

         Thus when the flagship university has completed its new state-of-the-art student center facility, other universities in the state who operate in the same environment decided to do the same to end up look the same and get the most benefit from the facility.

Thus the answer

"Universities operate in the same environment and therefore end up looking alike".
