Examines the challenge faced by Australian Universities and Colleges of Advanced Education following publication of the Report of the Committee on Open University to the Universities Commission in 1974. Considers existing external studies programs, the importance of independence as a learning "mode", an experiment in community education, and the development of a national network for off-campus studies.
