New employees, current leaders, graduate students, legislators, and boards of trustees need a grounded sense of the magnitude of the community college sector.Minding the Dream evokes the laudatory goals of the early pioneers of the community college movement, while accurately framing key programs and political conundrums challenging community colleges.Minding the Dream celebrates community colleges successes and is scrupulously honest about their failings.
Community college leaders need honest information about whats working and need to be challenged about the things that are not. State Legislatures and Congress need updated facts to assist them in making wise funding decisions regarding community colleges. Community college advocates need updated information to assist them in their advocacy work, and Higher Education programs need an updated book about community colleges to use as a basic text. These are the people who can benefit from readingMinding the Dream.
