An address on "Public Confidence in Higher Education" by the chairman of the board of the Bank of America opended the 1970 Lake Arrowhead Conference of Southern California and Arizona community college superintendents and presidents. A summary of this speech and the questions and answers that followed it are included here. Comments from conference participants on such topics as activities of the Board of Governors and the program of the California Junior College Association are summarized. Synopses are presented of five small-group sessions on (1) methods of communication among and between administrators, (2) the current status of the physical education requirement, (3) Student rights and responsibilities, (4) financing, and (5) recommendations for the formation of a statewide organization of chief community college administrators. Two papers on faculty participation in college governance (included with these proceedings) formed the basis for a discussion on that topic. A presentation of resolutions passed and recommendations made for the 1971 conference concluded the final session of the 1970 Lake Arrowhead Conference. (RC)
