Abstract

With the approach of ubiquitous access to distributed learning resources, the old regional basis for community colleges is rapidly evaporating. In order to survive as vibrant and relevant institutions, we will be challenged to re-think the nature and purpose of our institutions and to develop new services for our students and the communities we serve. These new services will augment and extend our traditional roles and will be firmly based on the enduring values of the community college movement. But distributed learning programs and courses are expensive to develop. If colleges are to fully deliver on distributed learning's promise of increased access and flexibility, then we will need to learn to both compete and collaborate at the same time.
