Historical Sketch:
The Continuing Education Committee was established in 1978 to consider founding a new program at Mount Holyoke College for older women or to alter the existing program. The Committee was composed of the President of the College, various professors, alumnae, and students. Although the Committee was established after the formation of the Frances Perkins Program, the Committee's main task was to improve the program to better suit the needs of the students.

Description of Records:
The records contain a list of proposed members of the Committee, reports, proposals, minutes, memoranda, and correspondence. Many demographic statistics are included, in addition to discussions of a changing American Society. Lists of problems and concerns are included in the reports, as well as budgetary and scheduling information.
