Abstract: By use of interviews, questionnaires, and observation, the courses and programs offered by the University Center for Adult Education, in Detroit, were evaluated. The courses concerned Communication and Language Art, Environment, Practical Economics, Behavioral Science, Technology, Extension Courses, and Special Events. Evaluation findings show that the Center has failed to some degree in not directing its attention to courses that are job-oriented or problem solving. It is recommended that more energy be expended on the lower echelons of the population rather than on the upper or middle echelons. An additional recommendation is that a one or two days' orientation program for teachers of adults be planned. (DB)
