Giving Credit Where Credit Is Due.
Flynn, William J.
Community College Journal, v72 n1 p31-35 Aug-Sep 2001
Argues that community colleges give less attention to noncredit courses and programs, those that are designed to assist in some sort of job training or those that simply enrich a student's knowledge. Sees this credit-based value system as highlighting the discrepancy between what community colleges offer and what students, especially older ones, really want. (NB)
