| Abstrakt: | Problems and barriers that women often face when re-entering the higher educational system are identified, and ways in which institutions can be more responsive to re-entry students are suggested. A wide range of possible actions is included so that institutions can pursue those most appropriate to their individual circumstances. Definitions are offered of nontraditional education and re-entry woman student. Suggestions are offered for scheduling options, including part-time study, evening programs, weekend colleges, and summer programs. Credit for experiential learning, noncollegiate courses, and College Level Examination Program testing and other examinations are covered. External degree programs, components of off-campus learning, and cooperation with business and other organizations are options for expanding alternatives for re-entry women in obtaining a degree. The inclusion of re-entry in cooperative education and internships, legal considerations, and serving special populations are addressed. A selected list of resources is included. (SW) |
