[[faded out]]e transformation of existing progra [[/faded out]] fuller training/apprenticeship projects which as educational media products will generate revenue as well as offering to the student the opportunity to learn specific situational business and vocational skills. A complete archiving of the Woman's Building as a five year tested model for changing liberal arts education to both include and help generate female perspectives and the implementation of structures to allow for the sharing of these materials with other institutions. This archive would include all educational materials produced as well as documentation of student work. It would represent a valuable historical library to both students and educators.
