TITLE: Alternative Forms of Higher Education for
California.
YEAR PUBLISHED: 1972
NOTE: 137 p.
ABSTRACT: Provision needs to be made in California for
alternative educational forms because: (1) there is
currently a great deal of dissatisfaction with prevailing
arrangements, and since there is no agreement on one ideal
form or system, the best procedure is to set up probes of
alternative futures; (2) the needs of society, like those
of individual aptitudes and interests, vary and change; (3)
the public segments and the variety of private educational
alternatives in the context of social pluralism; and (4)
the notion of diversity is consistent with the best
American traditions. This document presents some rationales
for various alternative forms of higher education that
might be implemented and that have been implemented in
California.
