Coordination and Competition in Postsecondary Distance Education: A Comparative Case Study of Statewide Policies.
Epper, Rhonda Martin
Journal of Higher Education, v68 n5 p551-87 Sep-Oct 1997
Three case studies (Minnesota, Maine, Colorado) looked at changes in the competitive environment in higher education as a result of distance education, particularly in nontraditional adult education; suitable structures for helping the state meet goals for improving access to education; and resolution of conflicts between traditional principles of statewide coordination and those of competition.
