Research in Higher Education, v31 n1 p15-38 Feb 1990

Two surveys, in 1977 and 1987, provide data for analyzing and explaining change in these institutions. Data from a sample are compared to those for higher education in general, giving particular attention to two dimensions: access and graduate education. Local demography and economic conditions as contributors to stability are considered. (Author/MSE)
