Canadian-American Studies in Washington State Institutions of Postsecondary Education. A Report in Response to SR 1976-233.
Uhlman, Neil D.
Washington's Senate Resolution 1976-233 directed the Council for Postsecondary Education to survey courses offered in institutions of higher education in Washington, covering such areas as Canadian problems, government, history, natural resources, and so on, and compile an inventory of courses covering such Canadian subject matter. The response to that directive is made in two parts. The first is a summary of the legislature's interest in Canadian-American studies, the institutional level of involvement, and recommendations for future development in this area. The second part contains an inventory of courses that are currently, have been, or are planned to be offered in the state's public and private postsecondary education institutions. Although the report contains recommendations, its purpose is primarily informational. It is recommended that (1) Western Washington State College and the Graduate School of Business Administration of the University of Washington continue their programs in Canadian-American Studies; (2) no expansion of current programs be undertaken; and (3) all postsecondary institutions integrate subject matter relative to Canada into courses when feasible.
