- Summary:
-
With the purpose of establishing a special English program at the University of Florida which would serve both teachers at the two-year community colleges and students preparing to teach at them, a five-man committee visited most of the state's 30 two-year colleges to discuss their needs and goals with faculty and administrators. Summer institutes designed specifically for community college teachers, and increased attendance at national conferences such as the College English Association and the Conference on College Composition and Communication provided further information. As a result, a flexible M. A. program has developed with these degree requirements: (1) six four-hour English courses, (2) five of the four-hour specifically community college courses, (3) an internship in teaching, (4) reading knowledge of one foreign language, and (5) a comprehensive written exam. In addition, experienced two-year college teachers are being used, graduate courses are offered at night, University of Florida faculty travel to community colleges to teach, and a close relationship has been established between the university and the community colleges.
