Community Colleges for International Development, Inc.: The Vision and the History, 1976-1994.
Humphrys, James G.; Koller, Albert M., Jr., Ed.
Focusing on organizational structure, operational policies, and scope of activities, this monograph relates the history of the Community Colleges for International Development, Inc. (CCID), a cooperative endeavor to promote international education in two-year colleges. The first chapter describes CCID's formative years, from its foundation in 1976 by Brevard Community College, Bunker Hill Community College, Delaware Technical and Community College, Florida Junior College, and Navarro Community College to develop opportunities for international education, to its expansion to nine colleges and training agreements with Taiwan and the Republic of Suriname by the end of 1980. Chapter 2 reviews organizational growth between 1981 and 1985, highlighting the educational exchange of CCID-member students with West Germany, the training of Suriname students and teachers at CCID institutions, and the expansion to 11 members in 1985. Chapter 3 reviews activities between 1986 and 1988, including student and faculty exchange programs in Europe, while chapter 4 describes CCID reactions to global events from 1989 to 1994, highlighting projects in Eastern Europe, Suriname, Russia, and Taiwan, as well as the expansion to 21 full and 41 affiliate members by 1993. Footnotes are included for each chapter. Appendixes include a CCID financial summary for 1976-1994, and a list of member colleges showing years of membership and college personnel on the CCID Board.
