Much of the buzz has been positive, with community colleges cast as the nexus of national efforts to prepare a highly skilled workforce, as well as the lynchpin in the K20 education pipeline. Millions of federal and philanthropic dollars have been poured into the community college sector via initiatives such as the Trade Adjustment Assistance Community College and Career Training Grant Program, Achieving the Dream, and Compete to Complete, and community colleges across the nation have responded with efforts to improve job training and workforce development programs, reforms intended to boost student progress and completion rates, and collaborations with K-12 and university personnel to improve articulation and transfer among the sectors. For thirty years The American Community College has provided up-to-date information and statistics about community colleges and has been widely used both in graduate courses on community colleges, and as reference material by community college scholars and practitioners (many of whom are entering doctoral programs in order to advance in the administrative ranks). The sixth edition includes an entirely new chapter focused on community college outcomes and accountability, as well as new sections dealing with the rise of for-profit colleges; vertical expansion, including dual enrollment and community college baccalaureates; cross-sector collaboration; student characteristics and enrollment patterns; the effects of part-time faculty; leadership and administrative challenges; revenue generation and state allocation patterns, including performance-based funding; distance learning; statewide efforts to improve transfer and articulation; and, finally, a response to contemporary criticisms of the institution"--$cProvided by publisher. 606 $aCommunity colleges$zUnited States 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aCommunity colleges 676 $a378.1/5430973 686 $aEDU015000$2bisacsh 700 $aCohen$b Arthur M$0260905 701 $aBrawer$b Florence B.$f1922-$0939245 701 $aKisker$b Carrie B.$f1977-$0939246 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910452367103321 996 $aThe American community college$92117181 997 $aUNINA LEADER 06902nam 2201933Ia 450 001 9910784618803321 005 20231116095308.0 010 $a1-4008-1931-8 010 $a1-283-57873-5 010 $a9786613891181 010 $a1-4008-2114-2 024 7 $a10.1515/9781400821143 035 $a(CKB)1000000000396587 035 $a(EBL)1011046 035 $a(OCoLC)811491339 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000084832 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11112573 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000084832 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10022919 035 $a(PQKB)11176807 035 $a(OCoLC)55716495 035 $a(MdBmJHUP)muse36316 035 $a(DE-B1597)447052 035 $a(OCoLC)979581285 035 $a(DE-B1597)9781400821143 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL1011046 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebr10597117 035 $a(CaONFJC)MIL389118 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC1011046 035 $a(dli)HEB01252 035 $a(MiU)MIU01000000000000003865538 035 $a(EXLCZ)991000000000396587 100 $a19921118h19931993 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurnn#---|u||u 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 10$aSaints and their miracles in late antique Gaul /$fRaymond Van Dam 205 $aCourse Book 210 1$aPrinceton, N.J. :$cPrinceton University Press,$d1993. 210 4$aŠ1993 215 $a1 online resource (viii, 349 pages) $cmap 300 $aIncludes English translations of selections from Fortunatus and Gregory of Tours. 311 0 $a0-691-03233-5 311 0 $a0-691-02112-0 320 $aIncludes bibliographical references (p.

Here Raymond Van Dam uses accounts of miracles performed by SS. Martin, Julian, and Hilary to provide a vivid and comprehensive depiction of some of the most influential saints' cults. Viewed within the context of ongoing tensions between paganism and Christianity and between Frankish kings and bishops, these cults tell much about the struggle for authority, the forming of communities, and the concept of sin and redemption in late Roman Gaul. Van Dam begins by describing the origins of the three cults, and discusses the career of Bishop Gregory of Tours, who benefited from the support of various patron saints and in turn promoted their cults. He then treats the political and religious dimensions of healing miracles--including their relation to Catholic theology and their use by bishops to challenge royal authority--and of pilgrimages to saints' shrines. The miracle stories, collected mainly by Gregory of Tours, appear in their first complete English translations. 606 $aChristian saints$xCult$zFrance$xHistory 606 $aChristian pilgrims and pilgrimages$zFrance$zTours$xHistory 610 $aAeneid. 610 $aAlternative medicine. 610 $aAmulet. 610 $aArchdeacon. 610 $aAriamir. 610 $aArianism. 610 $aAugustine of Hippo. 610 $aAustrasia. 610 $aBaptism of the Lord. 610 $aBrioude. 610 $aBurgundians. 610 $aBurial. 610 $aCaesarius. 610 $aCatholicism. 610 $aChararic (Frankish king). 610 $aChlothar I. 610 $aChlothar II. 610 $aChristianity. 610 $aChurch Fathers. 610 $aClergy. 610 $aConfidant. 610 $aConsecration. 610 $aDeference. 610 $aDesiderius. 610 $aDysentery. 610 $aEaster. 610 $aEternal life (Christianity). 610 $aExorcism. 610 $aFalernian wine. 610 $aFolk healer. 610 $aFredegund. 610 $aGenerosity. 610 $aGeorgius. 610 $aGod. 610 $aGreat martyr. 610 $aGregorius. 610 $aGregory of Tours. 610 $aHagiography. 610 $aHelladius. 610 $aHeresy. 610 $aHis Family. 610 $aHistorian. 610 $aHumility. 610 $aIntercession. 610 $aJews. 610 $aLate Antiquity. 610 $aLent. 610 $aLeprosy. 610 $aLiterary criticism. 610 $aLiterature. 610 $aMagnus Maximus. 610 $aMarmoutier. 610 $aMartin of Tours. 610 $aMartyr. 610 $aMatricula. 610 $aMerovech. 610 $aMerovingian dynasty. 610 $aMonastery. 610 $aOld Testament. 610 $aPaganism. 610 $aPalladius of Saintes. 610 $aPatron saint. 610 $aPaulinus of Nola. 610 $aPenitential. 610 $aPersecution. 610 $aPeter and Paul. 610 $aPiety. 610 $aPoitiers. 610 $aPope Gregory I. 610 $aPotion. 610 $aPredestination. 610 $aProcession. 610 $aPutrefaction. 610 $aRadegund. 610 $aRelic. 610 $aReliquary. 610 $aRemigius. 610 $aResurrection of the dead. 610 $aRighteousness. 610 $aRite. 610 $aRoman Gaul. 610 $aSaint. 610 $aSchool of Graduate Studies (SPS). 610 $aSecularism. 610 $aSelf-healing. 610 $aSilvester. 610 $aSlavery. 610 $aSpirituality. 610 $aSuffragan bishop. 610 $aSulpicius Severus. 610 $aTheodosius I. 610 $aTheology. 610 $aTomb. 610 $aTours. 610 $aTrue Cross. 610 $aVeneration. 610 $aVisigoths. 610 $aWeidemann. 610 $aWord of Faith. 610 $aWriting. 615 0$aChristian saints$xCult$xHistory. 615 0$aChristian pilgrims and pilgrimages$xHistory. 676 $a235/.2/094409021 700 $aVan Dam$b Raymond$f1949-$0487736 701 2$aFortunatus$b Venantius Honorius Clementianus$fca. 540-ca. 600.$0167478 701 2$aGregory$cSaint, Bishop of Tours,$f538-594.$0783112 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910784618803321 996 $aSaints and their miracles in late antique Gaul$92366714 997 $aUNINA
