Abstract | Characteristics of 187 free universities and 21 learning referral centers and information on registrations and referrals, finance, and staffing are examined, based on 1982 followup survey results. A free university is broadly defined as an organization that offers to the general public ungraded, unaccredited classes that anyone can teach; learning referral centers allow persons to register their learning needs and help match potential learners with resource people. Information is provided on the following: number of free universities and centers by year founded, affiliation, and eligibility for activities; number and percent of registrations and referrals by school affiliation; number and percent of free universities and centers charging fees for services; expenditures of free universities by expenditure size and type of expenditure, and of centers, by type of expenditure; revenues of free universities, by expenditure size and source of revenue, and of centers, by source of revenue; number of staff in free universities and centers, by paid staff size and pay status; and number of sections offered by free universities, for selected subjects. Information on the survey methodology and a directory of free universities and learning referral centers are included. (SW) |
