SPECIFIC ASPECTS OF GRADUATE EDUCATION, THE STATE SYSTEM OF HIGHER EDUCATION, PRIVATE OR INDEPENDENT COLLEGES AND UNIVERSITIES, COMMUNITY COLLEGES, PROPRIETARY SCHOOLS, AND CONTINUING EDUCATION ARE REVIEWED. FACULTY, FACILITIES, STATE FISCAL BASIS FOR SUPPORT OF EDUCATION, AND ASPECTS OF STATE-LEVEL COORDINATION FOR THE VARIOUS TYPES OF INSTITUTIONS ARE DISCUSSED.
