Cf. citations in Teacher Education in the United States: The Responsibility Gap, ( Lincoln: University of Nebraska Press, 1976), p. 33. NIE has recently summarized the research on size in schools which points overwhelmingly to the desirability of smallness and the emphasis on community formation. Cf.

Cf. George Denemark , "An Alternative Report," Teacher Education in the U.S., pp. 213-14. Denemark's point has been picked up by almost every dean of education who has reviewed the Study Commission's work.
