Illusion of Community in the Community College.
Bryant, Donald W.
Community College Journal of Research and Practice, v19 n4 p285-94 Jul-Aug 1995
Reviews current criticisms of community services programming in community colleges, focusing on the services' overexpansion of college mission and funding restraints. Argues that colleges cannot effectively intervene in every aspect of community life. Suggests that colleges redefine the notion of community services, retaining the educational components and eliminating service-oriented activities. (MAB)
