520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC.
Summary, etc. This book is one outcome of a study which was undertaken at the invitation of Joseph Kershaw of Williams College, who was at the time a program officer of the Ford Foundation, and Clark Kerr, Chairman of the Carnegie Commission on Higher Education. Their particular concern in commissioning the study was the fact that higher education enrollments were increasing faster than higher education budgets. It seemed to them, in view of the disillusionment of the general public with higher education, that budget stringency was certain to get worse and might possibly severely cripple higher education's efforts to accomplish its educational mission. Their injunction to us was that we search out ways that might substantially improve the efficiency of higher education so that students would not suffer unduly as a result of reduced budgets. They made it clear that we should not spend time looking for ways that might pick up bits and pieces; we were to try to concentrate on ways that had some chance of bringing about large increases in efficiency.
