In the Midst of Change: Continuing Education in a Research University.
Copas, Ernestine M.
Adult Learning, v1 n6 p10-11,25 Apr 1990
The strengths of continuing education academic programs--offering courses in nontraditional patterns to attract adult students--bring them into conflict with the traditions of a research university. At issue are the qualifications of the faculty, the students, the quality of the education, and the appropriateness of continuing education's involvement in offering academic credit. (Author)
