Abstract	Before presenting the plan for the improvement of teaching in the colleges and universities of Oregon's state system, this report reviews: (1) the administrative structure of the state's institutions of higher learning, including the role and function of the president and other academic officers and some aspects of the physiology of the institutions' administration, such as the formal and informal organization and the importance of the teachers' role in academic administration; (2) faculty groupings, responsiblity, and attitudes; (3) student heterogeneity, demands, participation in governance, role in planning, and evaluation of instruction; (4) factors essential to the improvement of instruction in the institutions, such as the need for basic curricular evaluation, improving the quality of service among teaching assistants, special awards for meritorious teaching, and giving greater responsibility for learning to the student; and (5) some approaches to the improvement of instruction. Suggestions are included for: an institutional plan for curricular and instructional improvement which contains provisions for reviewing curricular and course structure, recognizing teaching performance and "teaching improvement" programs etc., and for committing personal and institutional resources.
