The national conference "Toward Educational Development in the Community Junior College" was the fifteenth summer junior college conference held at the University of California, Los Angeles. Twelve papers were presented at the conference and emphasized four major topical areas in addition to matters directly related to instruction. Those areas were: (1) institutional research, including findings of research that point to the need for change and improvement in the junior college; (2) governmental agencies and foundations, as external stimuli for educational development; (3) budgeting, at both district and state levels for educational development; and (4) organizing, for educational development.
