The Community College at the Watershed: Balancing Open Access and Quality.

Vaughan, George B.

Change, v16 n2 p38-44 Mar 1984

A key to the movement toward open access to higher education has been the growth of public community colleges, which are reexamining their priorities, resources, and missions. The need for "people's colleges" to reconcile their concern for quality with their commitment to open access is discussed. (MLW)
