Accreditation and Society.
Davies, Gordon K.
North Central Association Quarterly, v62 n2 p380-85 Fall 1987
Points to problems in the conceptualization and outcomes of accreditation. Imposes a hierarchy of immediacy on the accrediting agency, the institution seeking accreditation, and the consumers of services of the institutions or their graduates. Evaluates Better Business Bureau, Underwriter's Laboratories, and Standard and Poor's as possible models for accreditation. (DMM)
