ABSTRACT: The New Jersey annual report on higher education
in the state highlights accomplishments during 1985-1986.
Five sections look at the following topics: (1)
introduction; (2) the foundations of excellence (funding to
reward excellence and excellence throughout the
institution); (3) equity/access (minority enrollment
initiatives, basic skills, affirmative action, and student
assistance); (4) special issues (evaluating the outcomes of
higher education, medical education policy initiatives, and
sector study commissions); and (5) system status report
(size of the system, budget and finance, funding policies
and formulas, and state college autonomy). Two appendices
provide tables on finances, student academic ability,
programs/degrees, enrollment, and faculty and on membership
of the advisory boards and groups. A map shows the locations
of New Jersey colleges and universities. Twelve figures
include special initiative funding to New Jersey collegiate
sectors, full-time faculty at New Jersey public colleges and
universities, and total expenditures by New Jersey higher
education by collegiate sector. (SM)
