Upper Extension of Two-Year Colleges -- The 10 Year Look: 1963-1972.
Beeler, Kent D.
A survey was conducted of the number and location of two-year institutional changes that occurred in 77 two-year colleges between the academic years 1962-63 and 1971-72. The extension of 77 junior colleges into four year colleges over the past ten years is discussed. Over 40% of the institutions were church-related, and almost 75% were coeducational. Almost half of the extended colleges had under 500 students. Over 66% of the institutions operated on the semester calendar and most were regionally accredited. (RS)
