This issue of the IRCD Bulletin is comprised of papers focusing on procedures and policies relating to admission to colleges. The first article by Dr. Edmund W. Gordon, "Higher Education and the Challenge of Universal Access to Post-Secondary Education," discusses the democratizing and humanistic functions of colleges in arriving at new admission policies for the emerging period. "Admission Procedures in Transition: Some Interrelations," by Hugh W. Lane, deals with the meaning of admissions decisions, the University as an idealistic institution, and open admission policies. A paper by Thomas C. Mendenhall relates to implications and consequences of admissions policies of institutions of higher education. The final article by Judith Ruchkin revolves around the viewing of the City College, New York dual admissions proposal as a compensatory education program. (RJ)
