Dear Colleague:
The University System of Georgia is a large, comprehensive system of public higher education charged with providing instruction, conducting research and performing service for the people of Georgia. In addition, it has an outreach program which extends to every state in the nation and to many countries of the world. It is one of Georgia's precious resources and a source of pride to its citizens.
This Information Digest brings together a collection of facts and statistical data designed to increase your knowledge and enhance your understanding of the University System. The choice of material has been dictated in large part by the questions which are most frequently asked of us in the Central Office of the Board of Regents. I hope you will find the Information Digest to be both interesting and valuable.
Sincerely,
H. Dean Propst Chancellor

PREFACE AND ACKNOWLEDGMENTS

This is the sixth edition of the University System of Georgia Information Digest. For the most part this edition provides updated information presented in the earlier editions. However, users should consuft those editions for some items that were intended for one time publication only and, thus, are not included in this year's document.
The purpose of the Digest is to provide reliable statistical data and summary information concerning the various activities of the University System. The information included was selected on the basis of the most frequently asked questions about the System and its 34 institutions. Users needing more specific information are directed to the original data sources cited on each page. In most cases the data and information were summarized from existing publications. The contents and accuracy of translation from the original documents are the sole responsibilityof the co-editors.
Appreciation is expressed to persons on the Central Office staff who assisted in their respective areas. We are especially appreciative of the contribution of Susan Whitman, who compiles, maintains, and updates data and information throughout the year and produces the Digest. Bob Anderson provided many constructive comments and a very thorough review.
We also would like to thank individuals from outside the Central Office who provided invaluable support. Jeff McMichael, Georgia State University, Department of Geography, created the maps.
Your enthusiastic reactions to past editions of the Information Digest are sincerely appreciated, and you are encouraged to offer suggestions for future editions. Many of the changes in this edition are the result of reader comments and suggestions.

UNIVERSITY SYSTEM OF GEORGIA
Brief History
The beginnings of public higher education in the State can be traced to 1784 when the General Assembly set aside 40,000 acres of land for the endowment of "a college or seminary of learning." During the following year, a charter was granted for the establishment of the University of Georgia. The state later provided appropriations for establishing the following branches: School of Technology in Atlanta, 1885 (now Georgia Tech); Georgia Normal and Industrial College for Girls, Milledgeville, 1889 (now Georgia College); Georgia State Industrial College for Colored Youths, Savannah, 1890 (now Savannah State College); and the South Georgia Normal School, Valdosta, 1906 (now Valdosta State College). Later, the legislature established an agricultural and mechanical arts (A&M) school in each congressional district.
In 1929, Governor L G. Hardman established a committee charged with recommending reorganization of higher education. The most significant idea was the creation of a central governing board. On August 28, 1931, the Reorganization Act was signed which created the Board of Regents of the University System of Georgia. The Act called for the governor to appoint eleven members, one from each congressional district, and one at large.
In its January 1932 meeting, the Board adopted the following Statement of Plan:
It is the conviction of the Board of Regents that the people of Georgia intended to ordain by the Act creating the Board that the twenty-six institutions comprising the University System should no longer function as separate, independent, and unrelated entities competing with each other for patronage and financial support.
The manifest purpose of the Act creating the Board of Regents is to unify and coordinate the work of these institutions so that the educational program of each shall be integrated with that of every other institution and with the system as a whole. The result aimed at is a correlated, harmonious, and symmetrical structure free from wasteful duplications, but providing the maximum of educational opportunity to the students of the State. In short, the emphasis has been shifted from the interests of particular institutions to the interests of the State.
While the traditions, the welfare and the prestige of the several branches of the system will be an object of care on the part of the Board, all of their problems are to be finally resolved by the answer to the question: What will best serve the educational interests of the State as a whole?
With this as the paramount consideration, the constant aim of this body will be to establish and maintain a system of higher education that will command the sympathy and support of our educational leaders, and at the same time successfully meet our needs by offering the young men and women of Georgia the maximum of education.
To accomplish this result, the Regents will, after careful study, take such steps that to them seem best to coordinate and unify these institutions so that they will be related in purpose and regulated in scope. The only competition in which these schools will hereafter engage will be for preeminence in service and scholarship.
The Reorganization Act of 1931 transferred to the new Board the responsibility for 26 institutions. The Board began immediate reorganization by abolishing the A&M schools and two additional schools and creating two other institutions. The net result was that the System was reduced to 18 institutions. The earliest recorded enrollment was 8,035 in Fall 1933. The System was appropriated $1,900,500 by the State for 1932-33 but received only $1,624,928. In 1941, the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools withdrew the accreditation of 10 University System institutions because of irregularities and incidences of outside interference into academic activities at the institutions. In 1943, newlyelected Governor Ellis Arnall sponsored a Constitutional amendment to remove such interference by making the Board a Constitutional body. The amendment was OYerwbelmingly approved by the voters.
The principles enumerated in the 1932 policy statement have guided the development of a unified system. Today the Board continues to have Constitutional authority to govern, control, and manage the University System, as reaffirmed in the approval of the new State Constitution in 1982. These powers include the authority for program approval or discontinuance, internal reallocation of the budget, facilities construction, and decisions concerning adding new institutions, upgrading or downgrading the level of an institution, or closure or merger of institutions.
The University System is currently composed of 34 institutions (four universities, 15 senior colleges, 15 two-year colleges). In addition, three of the two-year colleges and one senior college maintain a postsecondary vocationaltechnical unit in cooperation with the State Board of Technical and Adult Education.

ADVISORY COUNCll..

UNIVERSITY SYSfEM ADVISORY COUNOL
The University System Advisory Council has the power to make recommendations to the Chancellor and through him to the Board of Regents regarding educational and administrative matters of concern to the University System. Membership is composed of the Chancellor, the Executive Vice Chancellor, and the presidents of the 34 institutions. The Council holds at least one regular meeting each quarter with special meetings held upon the call of the Chancellor. The Advisory Council has both academic and administrative committees which formulate recommendations to be presented to the Advisory Council for consideration. Th06e matters originating with academic committees are first considered by the Administrative Committee on Academic Affairs prior to consideration by the Advisory Council.
Membership on academic committees is limited to one representative per institution offering work in the field with which the committee is concerned. Administrative committees are of two types: those in which representation consists of one representative from each institution and those with selective representation which are appointed by the Chancellor (Research Administration, Testing, Transfer of Credit, and Graduate Work).

JOINT ENROLLMENT AND FARLY ADMISSION PROGRAMS
The purpose of both programs is to provide academically talented high school students with opportunities for acceleration of their formal academic programs. A joint enrollment student is one who is enrolled in courses for college credit while continuing in high school. An early admissions student is one who enrolls as a full-time college student following completion of the junior year in high school. Minimum admissions requirements are 1) a minimum combined Scholastic Aptitude Test score of BSO, 2) a minimum cumulative high school grade point lIYerage of 3.0 in academic subjects, 3) written approval (joint enrollment) or written recommendation (early admission) of the high school principal, and 4) written consent of parent or guardian (if student is a minor). Institutions may establish higher admissions standards or additional admissions requirements for either or both programs. In Fall 1989, 544 students were enrolled through the joint enrollment program.
Sources: Academic Affairs Handbook; Student Information Reporting System

SENIOR CTTIZEN ADMISSIONS

of fees, except for supplies, laboratory or Shop fees. Students mUlt meet all System and institution undergraduate or graduate school admission requirements and follow the same program as other degree-seeking students. The program does not apply to Dental, Medical, Veterinary, or Law Schools. In Fall 1989, 287 persons were enrolled through the program.

HOW TO RFAD THE TABLE: 1) Locate the column of the Sending Institution at the top of the page and the row of the Receiving Institution on the left side of the page. For example, Grr (Georgia Tech) rc:c:eived 17 transfer students from KSC (Kennesaw State College) and KSC received 28 transfer students from Grr. 2) To determine how many students transferred from a System institution to another System institution, read the bottom line. Por example, 411 students transferred from Georgia Tech to another System institution. Data are not available on numbers who transferred to a non-System Georgia institution or an out-d4ate institution.

CORE CURRICULUM
The institutions of the University System share a common general mission in providing a Core Curriculum for all entering freshmen. The purpose is to aid and facilitate the educational progress of students as they pursue baccalaureate degrees within and among the units of the University System. It is designed to constitute the freshman and sophomore years of study and assure the transfer student that Core Curriculum courses successfully completed at one University System institution, or a fractional part thereof, will be accepted at another University System unit and apply toward a baccalaureate degree. The Core also provides for the preservation of the maximum possible amount of institutional autonomy.
The Core Curriculum is composed of ninety quarter credit hours of study divided among four areas of which sixty hours are in general education and thirty in a major area of study.

II. Mathematics and Natural Science

The result has been that fewer transfer students lose credit, and institutions, particularly two-year colleges, are no longer placed in the difficult position of attempting to provide excessive curricular offerings to satisfy lower division requirements in various baccalaureate degree programs offered at all four-year institutions. Each institution has developed its Core Curriculum within the broad context of the above plan. The list is maintained in the Core Curriculum Handbook and is updated periodically as changes are recommended.
Sources: Core Curriculum Handbook; Office of Vice Chancellor for Academic Affairs

INTERNATIONAL INTERCULTURAL STUDIES PROGRAM (liSP)
The purpose of the program is to recommend to the Chancellor approval of any program with a foreign travel component. Its mission is to internationalize the outlook, curriculum, and campus of the 34 colleges and universities in the System. It does so by providing opportunities for study abroad throughout the academic year, exchange opportunities for both students and faculties, faculty development projects abroad, and development of joint research projects with foreign faculty. Other efforts are focused on assisting institutions with foreign student recruitment, creating area institutes (i.e., Far Eastern Studies, African Studies) and, generally, promoting a more significant understanding of global issues and culture. In 1989, IISP ran two academic year programs in Tours, France and Seville, Spain and 20 summer programs in various locations. Until Fall 1984, this program was called Studies Abroad.

REGENTS' TESTING PROGRAM
PURPOSP.: The Regents' Testing Program (RTP) was instituted in all System institutions to 1) provide System-wide infonnation on the status of student competence in the areas of reading and writing and 2) provide a unifonn means of identifying those students who fail to attain the minimum levels of competence in the areas of reading and writing. Passing the test became a requirement for graduation from undergraduate degree programs (associate and baa:alaureate) in 1973. In 1987 the RTP policy was changed to exempt students earning career associate degrees.
DESCRIPI1ON: The test consists of two parts, reading and essay, and is administered each quarter at all System institutions. The reading part of the test is a 6O-item, multiple choice test based on ten reading passages with five to eight questions about each passage. The questions are designed to assess vocabulary, comprehension, and analysis skills. The answers are machine scored and the raw score is converted to a standard score with a range of 01-99. The minimum passing score for the reading section is 61.
For the essay part, students have one hour in which to choose and write on one of the two topics that are given. The completed essays are then distributed by the RTP office among six centers in the State, where raters from System institutions score them. Essays are identified by social security number only so that raters do not 1alow the identity of the student or the institution. Three independent raters score each essay on a 4-point scaIe (4, superior performance; 3, high passing perfonnance; 2, minimum passing performance; 1, failing performance). The final score is the rating on which at least two of the three raters agree or the middle rating if there is no agreement. Thus, an essay is Jiwn a failing grade only if at least two of the three raters assign a failing grade.
REMEDIATION: Students who have earned 75 quarter hours of college-level credit and have not passed both parts of the test must take eon-degree credit courses in remedial reading and/or writing until they have passed both parts of the test. If a student fails only one part of the test, he or she is required to repeat only that part. There is no limit on the number of times a student may take remediation or retake the test, although some institutions have policies allowing students to retake the test only when quantifiable progress has been made.
RESULTS: After remaining relatively stable for ten years, Regents' Test results for first-time examinees showed improvement in recent years. The passing rates for the total test, which ranged from 63 percent to 66 percent between 1974-75 and 198384, began to improve in 1~, reached a high of 76.4 percent in 1987-88, and dropped slightly to 74.9 percent in 1988-89. The 1988-89System passing rate for 10,920 repeaters of the Regents'Test is 46.3 percent.

DEVEWPMENTAL SlUDIES PROGRAM

The Board of Regents adopted a System-wide policy providing for a Developmental Studies program beginning in Fall 1974 as
a means of bringing the reading. English, and mathematical skills of marginally prepared students up to standard. Students scoring below either 350 SAT-Verbal or 350 SAT-Math or students who do not meet the institution's standards for regular admission are required to take the appropriate partes) of the Basic Skills Examination, an achievement test developed by the University System, to determine whether they are to be placed in Developmental Studies or other credit course work. Students who do not complete the exit requirements for the required Developmental Studies area(s) after four attempts are suspended from the Developmental Studies program and are not eligible for re-entry for one quarter. Students are not allowed more than four quarters in anyone area. Students may accumulate up to 30 hours of degree credit while classified as a Developmental Studies student but may not take degree credit courses which require the content or skills of the Developmental Studies course which has not been successfully completed. In both admissions and exit requirements, institutions may develop stricter standards. No degree credit may be earned in Developmental Studies courses. but institutional credit is awarded.

FALL ENROlLMENT

The data provided below from 1979-1986 include all students who were required to take one or more Developmental Studies course(s). Data for 1987-1989 include all students who enrolled in a Developmental Studies course. Many of these students
were deficient in only one or two of the three areas and thus were also taking degree credit work simultaneously.

CAUI10N ABOUT DATA: Because admissions standards and Developmental Studies program exit requirements vary among institutions, extreme care must be exercised in making comparisons between institutions. For example, some institutions, particularly those with strong mathematics/science components, may establish higher admissions standards so that large numbers of students are required to enter Developmental Studies Math to strengthen their skills. Other institutions with a mission to educate marginally prepared students operate with lower admissions standards, and these institutions may have a smaller Developmental Studies enrollment. For these reasons, Developmental Studies enrollment is not an accurate indicator of student quality.

FACULTY TENURE STATUS
December 1989

Tenure resides at the institutional level. Only assistant professors, associate professors, and professors who are normally employed full-time by an institution are eligible for tenure. Tenure is awarded upon recommendation of the president and approval by the Board of Regents. Tenure may by awarded at the end of a fIve-year period, and the maximum time that may be served at the rank of assistant professor or above without the award of tenure is seven years. Administrators do not hold
tenure in their administrative positions but may be awarded rank and tenure within a department. The Board has also established a non-tenure track policy for persons with faculty rank. There is no limit for years of service in this category, but persons cannot be considered for award of tenure or receive probationary credit toward tenure for years of service in this track.

TYPICAL ATIENDANCE COST
Academic Year 1989-1990

GEORGIA RESIDENfS ONLY

The following data were prepared using the mandatory fee data from the two previous fee tables plus estimated elective charges. The typical cost for each type of institution does not include non-resident tuition for out-ofstate or out-of-country students, costs for books and supplies, transportation for commuting students, organization dues, and personal expenses (i,e., clothing, allowance).

I. UNIVERSITY - RESIDENTIAL

Due to the varying fee structure at the four universities, there is no typica1 cost for all university programs. However, the following estimate for Georgia Tech would also approximate a typica1 cost for a full-time residential student enrolled in a non-professional program at the University of Georgia.

FACILITIES
The System owned 2,481 buildings valued at $3,122 million. A total of 52,478 acres was owned by the System. Institutions completed $58 million in construction during FY1989. As of June 30, 1989 projects costing $149 million were under construction, and $141 million in planning funds had been authorized. The System had the capacity to house 31,000 students.

APPROPRIATIONS Facilities andCapital Outlay

Among the primary responsibilities of the Board of Regents is that of providing adequate facilities at the 34 institutions of the University System. The Office of the Vice Chancellor for Facilities administers Board policy in this area. Title to all properties is vested in the Board of Regents. The Board may hold, purchase, lease, sell, convey, or otherwise dispose of property if deemed appropriate for efficient administration of the University System.

The Office of Facilities, the Chancellor, and the Board of Regents utilize the top-ranked new building requests from each of the 34 institutions to develop the priority list of new buildings to be included in the University System budget request submitted to the Governor each September. The institutions' lists of major repair and rehabilitation projects are used by the Office of Facilities in administering the annual appropriation to the Major Repair/Rehabilitation Fund, an element of the Regents' funding formula.

While the larger facilities constructed are financed through the sale of bonds issued by the Georgia State Financing and Investment Commission (GSFIC), cash appropriations from the Georgia General Assembly are also a major source of funding for construction projects. Additional funds for construction come from outside sources (i.e., private donors and grants).

REPAIR/REHABILITATION FUND
FYl986 - FY1989

In accordance with the recommendations of the Study Committee on Public Higher Education Finance (1982), the day-to-day operation of the physical plant continues to be funded on the established dollars per square foot funding approach. However, to cover the non-formula component for major repairs and maintenance, the Committee recommended that the appropriation be set at three-fourths of one percent of the current replacement value of all System buildings. This recommendation became effective in FYI984 but wu fully funded for the first time in the FYI987 budget. Prior to FYI984, the System received a constant $25 million annually.

APPROPRIATIONS

FYI986 $ 7,879,367 FYI987 $19,595,m

FYI988 $19,958,066 FYI990 $21Jn,22S

Allocations have been used for such projects as reroofing or roof replacement, repairing/replacing boilers and chillers, upgrading electrical systems, providing handicapped accea, bringing buildings up to fire code speciflC8tiolls, and the removal of ubestOli materials for buildings in the University System.

Notes: 1) The above hours were selected to demonstrate peak time usage rates for general classrooms only. Lower afternoon rates reflect several scheduling patterns:
a) Non-traditional commuter institutions often have diffICUlty in scheduling early- to mid-afternoon classes because students, many of whom are employed full-time, cannot attend them.
b) Institutions often schedule lectures in general classrooms for the morning followed by laboratories in the afternoon; therefore, general classrooms are in less demand in the afternoon, whereas laboratories (not shown above) are in greater demand.
2) A 100 percent usage rate is difficult to attain because some classes are cancelled due to low enrollment, and the reserved space is not available in time to establish other class usage.
3) Data do not include utilization for continuing education (non-credit) C()UI'Ses.

PUBUC SERVICE AND CONTINUING EDUCATION
As part of the mission of the University System, public service and continuing education act as an interface between the 34 institutions and the communities which they serve. Such activities are an extension of the traditional on-campus learning process and have been established to improve the welfare of Georgia's citizens and serve business, industry, government, and professional organizations. The public service/continuing education component consists of the following:
Instructional services-offering primarily non-degree credit work designed for the purpose of upgrading skills or
personal development
Applied research-finding pragmatic solutions for identified problems
Consultation-providing expertise for solving problems
Technical assistance-providing support for completing a task

Board policy mandates that each institution shall offer a variety of conferences, institutes, short courses, workshops, seminars, and training programs. The principal unit awarded for participation in these non-degree credit activities is the Continuing Education Unit (C.E.U.), defined as ten contact hours of participation in an organized continuing education experience under responsible sponsorship, capable direction, and qualified instruction. The rapid growth that has occurred in this area is displayed below:

PUBUC SERVICE

Public service activities at University System institutions are diverse. To help facilitate these activities, the following special public service organizations have been established:
Georgia Extension Service
The University of Georgia Cooperative Extension Service / Fort Valley State College Cooperative Extension Program operates in 159 counties, serving the people of the state through a traditional concept: taking the University to the people. A staff of highly trained specialists in more than 20 disciplines in agriculture, home economics, community and rural development, and youth development supports county Extension personnel. In concert with client advisors, they identify key issues, develop programs, and cany out their mission of teaching in an informal, out-of-classroom setting.
The Extension Service, along with other state Extension services and the UGA College of Agriculture, has pinpointed issues to target in its programs. They include: alternative agricultural opportunities; building human capital; competitiveness and profitability in agriculture; conservation and management of natural resources; family and economic well-being; improving nutrition, diet, and health; revitalizing rural America; water quality; and youth at risk.
Within the context of these national initiatives and The University of Georgia Strategic Plan, the Extension Service has targeted five critical issues for intensified educational emphasis: agricultural profitability and sustainability; water quality; food quality and safety; rural economic development; and parenting education.
Rural Development Center, Tifton
This unit of the Cooperative Extension Service is an outreach service center for The University of Georgia's Cooperative Extension Service. The primary focus is on the development of the economic potential of the state's agriculture. Thirty-five agricultural specialists housed at the Center are the link between the knowledge of University researchers and the county agent and farmer. The Center also serves as a conference center offering educational programs designed to help provide solutions to identified state and national issues which encompass the College of Agriculture priorities with emphasis on those issues critical to rural revitalization.
Georgia Center for Continuing Education
The mission of the Georgia Center for Continuing Education is to serve the learning needs of adults and to give leadership in the field of continuing education. In accomplishing this mission, the Center offers a comprehensive continuing education program delivering continuing education offerings through a variety of delivery systems that include residential conferences and community programs held at the Athens campus facilities of the Center; conferences and short courses conducted off-campus in communities and facilities throughout Georgia; individualized credit-free learning activities offered through a technologydriven learning laboratory housed in the Center; group and individualized learning activities delivered statewide and nationally by way of educational technology that includes audio and video satellite-assisted teleconferences, and audio and video tapes produced and delivered in a variety of ways; undergraduate credit classes offered in the evening and on weekends or by independent study. The Center has facilities and expertise for producing educational media including film, slides or slide-tape, audio and video tape and for developing and producing quality instructional materials via print media. It owns and operates an PM radio station which is part of the Peach State Public Radio Network and an affiliate of National Public Radio.
Economic Development Laboratory
The Georgia Tech Research Institute's Economic Development Laboratory, through its campus-based programs and 12 industrial extension regional offices, is Georgia Tech's primary vehicle for interaction with industry in Georgia. With a staff of over 200, last year there were more than 9,600 interactions with industry, government agencies, and development groups. Conferences, courses, and symposia last year attracted 5,400 attendees from 45 states and 15 foreign countries. The lab is involved with: assisting business with technology, engineering safe workplaces and environments, advancing manufacturing technology, conducting economic and marketing services, and providing education and training.
The Industrial Education Group helps Georgia companies improve their productivity and product quality through inplant training of managers and supervisors. The many programs include supervisory skills, statistical process control and customized technical training. Classes feature actual case studies and emphasize implementation of what is learned.
Urban Life Center
This center at Georgia State University seeks solutions to urban problems through instruction, research, and service.

Programs range from alternative energy form research to the development of electronic defense systems; from economic development assistance to business and industry to the application of complex computer technology; from analyses of systems for monitoring stratospheric pollution to the design and implementation of totally new radars; from the evolution of processing techniques for earth resources satellites to the management of solar energy test facilities. Much of the research is within the broad fields of electronics, including electronic defense, electronic systems, electronic techniques and components, antennas, microelectronics, electromagnetics, and optical electronics. In addition, energy research on solar and other alternative energy forms and work on energy conservation and applications are priority areas. Additional ongoing programs include domestic and international economic development, computer technology and applications, mechanics and the fields of biological, physical, chemical, material, earth, atmospheric, and social sciences. Georgia Tech Research Institute is headquartered on the Georgia Tech campus with leased facilities at Dobbins Air Force Base and field offices in Albany, Augusta, Brunswick, Carrollton, Columbus, Douglas, Dublin, Gainesville, Macon, Madison, Rome, and Savannah; research is also being conducted at various sponsor locations throughout the nation and the world. Extramural support for FYI989 was $136,817,647.
Georgia State University
Extramurally funded research programs are broadly based and are conducted in the six colleges of Arts and Sciences, Business Administration, Health Sciences, Public and Urban Affairs, Education, Law and interdisciplinary research centers. Priority research areas include economic forecasting and policy, and environmental biology, language research, high resolution astronomy, molecular biology, biochemistry and biophysics. Research in hydrogeology and environmental biology is conducted by several academic departments and the Skidaway Institute at sites on the coast of Georgia as well as the land areas and rivers of north Georgia in cooperation with local, state, and federal agencies. The Economic Policy Center conducts research in the economy, governance, including regulation, and fiscal and social issues and is closely allied with the Economic Forecasting Center focusing on the status of local, state and national economies. The Language Research Center conducts research on Comparative Primate Cognition primarily on the representational and symbolic capacities of primates utilizing computerized systems. The Center for High Angular Resolution Astronomy utilizes speckle interferometry techniques to resolve binary stars, and determine their orbits and other characteristics. The Laboratory for Microbial and Biochemical studies conducts research in the structure of genes and control of gene expression; neural and endocrine control of behavior; the design, synthesis and structure elucidation of biologically important molecules; and the biophysical chemistry of biomacromolecular processes. Extramural support for FYI989 is $16,150,017.
Medical College of Georgia

INSTITUTES AND CENTERS
Both centers and iJl5titutes provide an organizational base for research and an opportunity for interdisciplinary activity and involvement in continuing education activities, facilitate efforts to obtain extramural funding, and serve as a link between the academic and professional communities in a given academic area. A center is DOt an autonomous structure within the organizational structure of the college or university, but an iJl5titute may be an autonomous unit. An institute, unlike a center, may offer credit COUI'ICS and degree programs.
