The Beacon College Project is an outgrowth of the report of the AACJC Commission on theFuture of Community Colleges, Building Communities: A Vision For A New Century, which in1988 challenged the community college world to set its sights broadly and develop programsand services that would "build communities." The goal was to touch all major aspects ofinstitutional life, and the report examined a wide range of issues: partnerships for learning,the curriculum from literacy to lifelong learning, the classroom as community, the college ascommunity, connections beyond the college, and leadership for a new century. With generousfunding from the W. K. Kellogg Foundation, this project is helping community, technical, andjunior colleges across the country to implement many of these recommendations throughexemplary programs or services.

The Beacon College concept. requires the Beacon College to form a consortium with at leastfive Associate Colleges. Institutions selected as Beacon Colleges have either developed ex-emplary programs or services related to recommendations in Building Communities that theyhelp Associate Colleges to replicate, or they have completed a substantive plan for suchprograms or services which can be implemented collectively with their Associate College

consortia. In either case, the basic intention of theBeacon College Project is to use a consortiumapproach to carry out activities that will address the issues identified in the FuturesCommission's report.

A total of 26 Beacon Colleges have been awarded two-year grants through the project, andthey have brought with them more than 200 Associate Colleges. Additional community,educational, and business partners have also been key players. The Beacon College projectsin the first round, represented by the Class of 1992, have just completed their activities. TheClass of 1993 projects are currently underway, and the Class of 1994 initiatives are ready tobegin. All 26 projects are described in this directory. They offer innovative and creativeapproaches to such important issues as leadership, student retention, faculty development,curriculum development, ethics, workforce development, literacy, and cultural diversity.

The American Association of Community Colleges expresses appreciation to the KelloggFoundation for its generous support of this vision for the future.

The model calls for establishment of an Assessment Task Forceat each Associate College, which will later help replicate the model in one or more of the remainingMassachusetts community colleges. Other features of the project include a three-day workshop toprepare plans of act:on to implement assessment programs. The Beacon College serves as "coach" andresource during the planning and implementation process. Each campus will develop an AssessmentResource Center containing current literature on outcomes assessment and institutional effectiveness.
