The army and Navy continue to offer several col Leges for . Under the air Force s single source policy one school offers All undergrad uate Liberal arts courses and another of fers vocational and technical courses. The Cao study focused on id installations it visited in Europe. The defense department did not refute the Agency s findings. It said the air Force is negotiating commas for educational programs in the Pacific and is open minded toward a single or Ernult College contract. I Don t really have any major complaint except that they be taken basically Correct data and they be just kind of looked at in you can look at so Many things in a positive or negative Way Cropsey said. Though the report Points out certain drawbacks in the air Force s single source policy it stops Short of passing judgment the Bottom line is if you look at this report it does t say thai our system or the single source system that we use Here in Europe or in the Pacific is wrong Cropsey said. And to does t say that the system that the army is currently forced to have and i will say forced to have because they be been wanting to have this system single source for a Long time is wrong  while the air Force s single College system continues to provide the same Lype of courses As were available when several colleges were involved the Gao report said it increased the Cost of completing those degrees to both the service and its  enrolment costs per student in the air Force system Rose 8 percent Between 1984 and 1985, from 1135 to 1146, the report said. During thai same period the army s Cost remained the same 1141 per enrolment. The Gao blamed the increase in part on inc higher fees that a four year University charged lower level students for Liberal arts courses that were previously offered by iwo year schools. But Cropsey said the increases were in part explained by new contracts being signed with the institutions during the sur vey period. He said other factors were inc declining value of the Dollar and the rising costs of College education in general. While course costs have risen with the new air Force system he Gao said the new policy reduced Competition rot Stu dents among schools at the base level called for extended commitments from schools to provide education service and required More Quality control. The air Force started a single College system in 1984, several years after the Council on pos secondary accreditation in 1980 said the military s  education program in Europe had unnecessary Competition among schools and duplication of courses. The Gao report was required by the defense authorisation act of 1986. The Agency did not take a close look at Nav programs in Europe because the Navy system is Small in relation to the Armand air Force programs in 1984, As the air Force switched to the new system he army began plan for a timid single College program but the army plan was scrapped when con Gress intervened after hearing Oramo Nulty colleges express concent Over their diminishing role in providing program  in Europe. Liberal arts and general education courses Are provided on air Force bases by the University of Maryland. The Cit colleges of Chicago provides vocational and technical courses. Enrolment in College courses h up among air Force members in  said. Enrolment increased from 26 percent from s9.433 in fiscal 1984 to 74,819 this year.
