The commuter institute is one to which students commute. The two basic assumptions of this study are: (1) the Chicago Circle campus of the University of Illinois will remain a commuter institution during the decade ahead; and (2) the campus will increasingly serve a more heterogeneous student body. These assumptions have important implications for student services. This document sets up some broad parameters to establish a conceptual base for the various services, to explicate some goals, and to indicate certain improvements needed before attacking the question of organizational alignments. Part 1 deals with the content of the delivery system. Part 2 deals with the structural or organizational issues. (Author/KE)
