Banas, Ed, Jr.; Emory, Fran

Journal of Public Affairs Education, v4 n3 p221-26 Jul 1998

Outlines characteristics of two-year colleges, their students and their programs, and argues that they can play a vital role in delivery of public-administration education to a variety of students. Curricula, which include one- and two-year degrees, transfer and nontransfer degrees, and single courses, help citizens and employees with professional development and initial employment in public organizations.
