An Educational Policy Journal Critical Issues in the Community Colleges Purpose Post-secondary institutions require proactive initiatives to remain innovative and attractive to those they serve. As a result, many community colleges operate at the cutting edge of pedagogy and technology in an effort to address both student and community needs. Yet the pace and nature of education continue to change rapidly. The editors of this special issue of Planning and Changing invite authors to submit manuscripts that contribute to this critical, and timely discourse. Manuscripts Qualitative, quantitative, historical, philosophical, and sociological frameworks which explore the vision and ideas which critically impact community colleges are acceptable.

Watson has accepted a position as Associate Professor in Higher Education at Clemson University.

Early this spring on the CSP list serve I asked for book suggestions, either fiction or nonfiction, for use in a multicultural student affairs preparation class. I was particularly looking for books that express the complexity of multiculturalism through profound personal experiences.
