The annual report describes project activities in two categories: those of the task force (governing body) and those of subprojects. The task force worked toward establishing a viable, ongoing consortium for nontraditional postsecondary education in New England and to consider other collaborative efforts for meeting regional needs. The subprojects included development of open, nonresidential courses, a faculty information conference, a conference of educational television directors, survey research on existing nontraditional programs, and survey research on the needs and characteristics of nontraditional learners. A list of project goals is appended. (MSE)
