The second section describes the minimum criteria a higher education institution should meet in delivering community college services. These criteria relate to enrollment, programs, facilities, and services. The third section provides minimum criteria in the same areas for determining whether or not an extension center should be established. The final section describes in detail the content of the needs study to be submitted by the community to the Board of Regents and the Alaska Commission on Postsecondary Education. The report should include enrollment projections; a cost-benefit analysis; statements of proposed facilities, programs, costs, sources of revenue, and evaluation methods; evidence of the availability of community and library support; and physical descriptions of the proposed site and service area.
