The New Federal Focus on Accreditation.
Longanecker, David A.
Academe, v80 n4 p13-17 Jul-Aug 1994
Provisions of the Higher Education Act Amendments of 1992 concerning accreditation provide a clear message to the higher education community that the public has serious questions about the quality of higher education. Confidence can be restored by increasing public involvement in accreditation and by informing it of higher education's accomplishments. (MSE)
