Critics of the Community College: An Overview.
Vaughn, George B.
New Directions for Community Colleges, n32 p1-14 Win 1980
Summarizes criticisms of the community college in a list of six ways in which two-year colleges promote the socio-economic status quo. Reviews the writings of Clark, Jencks and Riesman, Cohen, Astin, Karabel, and Zwerling--all university-based critics. Suggests that two-year college educators analyze and profit from these criticisms. (GB)
