JUNIOR COLLEGE...GENERAL INFORMATION...NEW CONSTRUCTION UNDERWAY OR COMPLETED DURING
THE YEAR...FINANCIAL REPORT...
Although the faculty spent a good bit of time in the early part of
the year preparing for the visit from the Southern Association's
Visiting Committee, the year has been unusually productive of
curricular planning that would seem to make the curriculum more
effective for a junior college, with its diverse student population
and its task of providing meaningful general education....
Other changes in the instructional program tend to be more in the
area of attitude and philosophy than in the area of formal modifications.
In general, the change has been in the direction of a
greater emphasis on helping students learn and be successful in
college, rather than on screening out the unworthy....
ENROLLMENT BY YEARS IN THE PUBLIC SERVICE
AND CONTINUING EDUCATION PROGRAMS. 1968-69 2849. 1969-70 4998. 1970-71 12586....
TWO efforts were made during the year to increase the professional
awareness of the faculty and to keep them better
informed about what is happening in higher education....
The nursing program continued to grow and to develop in
both student enrollment and quality instruction....
The main academic difficulties have to do with problems
involved in implementing new and non-traditional teaching
methods. During the past year a number of faculty members
have become very much interested in some of the newer
approaches to teaching that have been found to be successful,
or at least promising, in junior colleges throughout
the country.
