Educators And Local Group Discuss
Establishing Community College Here
Kodiak as an off-campus educa
tional center of the University of
Alaska was discussed at an in
formal luncheon held Monday in
the Kodiak high school cafeteria.
The meeting was attended by
five educators representing the Un
iversity and about sixteen people
from Kodiak and the Naval Station.
Dr. Adams, vice-president of the
University of Alaska, introduced
the visiting educators, and a ques
tion and answer period followed.
Whether courses would be of
fered here, with a director in
charge, would depend on the in
terest shown locally, it was pointed
out. The courses are set up on a
self-sustaining basis, it was stated,
and a minimum of 15 students
would be required for a course.
Qualified teachers would be pro
vided, and students could obtain a
bachelors degree. The courses
would be set up on a semester
basis, as it is at the university.
The courses would be open to
civilian and military personnel, it
was stated. The community college
idea has proved very popular in
other Alaskan cities, it was brought
out.
One suggestion offered was that
questionaires or “instruments” be
sent out which would offer people
in the area an opportunity to ex
press themselves as to their in
terest in courses that may be of
fered.
The question was asked as to how
long it would take to set up such
courses here. The answer given was
that it would take time, as the Uni
versity would have to budget for
it, it would have to be set up by the
Board of Regents and the legisla
ture would have to approve it.
What was described as “stop
gap” courses was suggested as an
alternative until the community
college could be developed. This
would be “playing it by ear” with
the assistance of local teachers and
the school facilities here, but would
assist in determining the interest.
Courses mentioned as popular in
other communities were those of
fering college credits. Some of the
subjects mentioned were psychol
ogy, political science, language, and
subjects leading to a B. A. degree.
