Abstract	This article discusses the context in which rural community colleges seek to serve diverse constituencies of adult learners. A variety of innovative approaches to serving diverse adult learners are being undertaken by New Mexico State University at Grants, a two-year college in the New Mexico State University system serving a culturally diverse but economically distressed county. Particular emphasis is given to career ladder strategies and on-site distributed learning opportunities that provide access to professional baccalaureate degrees. (As Provided).
