Description: "A renaissance of innovation is taking place in America's community colleges. This book documents and analyzes stimulating changes that have marked the 1980s and points the way to new practices and structures that will continue to invigorate the community colleges during the 1990s. The 13 chapters offer a rich selection of possibilities for the future of the community college. Here are tested ideas and programs that make the community college such an important force in our changing society--the practices that serve students more fully, support faculty more effectively, and reach the community more extensively."--Cover.
