PUBLIC
POSTSECONDARY EDUCATION IN OREGON
Summary of Study
Widespread
concern about the perceived decline in quality of Oregon's higher education
institutions prompted the League of Women Voters of Oregon to adopt in 1983 a
study of public postsecondary education in Oregon. Although some 25 independent
institutions certainly contribute to higher education in the state, the scope
of this study is limited to public colleges, universities, and community
colleges. This report will focus on the following subjects:
- Governance-the current system and alternatives;
- Funding-major revenue sources and expenditures for
community colleges and for four-year colleges and universities;
- Roles-the specific missions and philosophical
purposes of the educational components as well as of higher education as a
whole, the interrelationship of roles with governance and funding.
