A survey was conducted to identify the degree to which the Association of American Geographers (AAG) 1970 recommendations on geography programs in two-year colleges were reflected in geography programs offered in the Ventura County Community College District (California). Results indicated that the recommendations were followed to a great extent, with the curriculum position of geography affirmed, a full range of courses offered, and the 10 instructors well qualified, each having a Master of Arts degree in geography. Most of the instructors had formal preparation for teaching, almost all used non-traditional methods, belonged to professional organizations, and informed their students of employment opportunities suitable for those with a background in geography. However, recommendations regarding the establishment of links between two- and four-year institutions and for obtaining external support for geography programs had not been followed. The 14 AAG recommendations and the questionnaire sent to geography instructors are included. (LH)
