Epilogue: The Performance Contract in Gary
Mecklenburger, James A.
Phi Delta Kappan, 54, 8, 562-563, Apr 73
Explains how the arrival of the performance contractor, Behavioral Research Laboratories, at Gary, Indiana, was beneficial and why their departure became a necessity. Contends that the tenure of BRL had to be curtailed because they functioned not as a creator of a new program, but as a change agent sufficiently powerful to force change at Gary. (Author)
