Presented here are four guest lectures and a paper by the instructor from The Junior (Community) College, a class at The University of Kansas. Topics are: (1) "The Challenge to Higher Education in Kansas in the Decade Ahead," which deals with the tremendous expansion expected in the Kansas community college system and the needed responses to this growth; (2) "Trends in Junior College Education," which outlines the need for the junior college to provide a broader scope of educational services, to serve the inner-city more effectively, and to develop competent leadership; (3) "The Kansas Community Junior College Act," which explains the present operation and future plans of the state system; (4) "Computers and the Junior College," which proposes a systems approach to facilitate junior college decision-making and planning; and (5) "The American Two-Year College," which traces the development of the two-year institution in its attempt to find its rightful role.
