Abstract | Elizabeth College has been historically a traditional liberal arts institution in the career-oriented programs of business, education, and more recently the health professions. In 1972, the faculty adopted a new nontraditional educational program primarily for adults, called the Center for Community Education. The purpose of the Center was to offer a variety of innovative programs leading toward the baccalaureate degree. A comparison of values, attitudes, and aspirations shared by the recipients of the nontraditional degrees with the graduates of the traditional program provides insight into the similarities and differences between the groups the College is attempting to serve. This analysis compares the graduates of both traditional and innovative programs regarding their backgrounds, their motivations for enrolling at the College, and the impact of the degrees on their professional aspirations.
