This publication presents the papers which were given at the Seventh Annual Leadership Conference for Association of University Evening College officers and committee chairmen and National University Extension Association officers. A summary of the discussion which followed is also provided. Each speaker emphasized the marginal nature of adult education activities of the university and suggested that the university image includes evening college and extension activities, if at all, as a public or community relations adjunct or as a method of securing additional financing. The papers also, however, suggest ways in which adult education can be made an increasingly central concern and responsibility of the university. (se)
