This book tells the story of Tunxis Community College (Connecticut), which exemplifies the changes seen in higher education across America since the 1960s. The College, created in 1970, is part of Connecticut's public college system. The author discusses Tunxis' factual history, and presents a collection of "voices" of the people who fashioned a vibrant campus during the last 3 decades--the students, faculty, and staff. The stories related here present Tunxis as an example of the new democracy of higher education in America at the end of the twentieth century.
