THIS OBJECTIVE LED TO SECONDARY OBJECTIVES WHICH FOCUSED ON TWO DISTINCT CLIENTELE GROUPS - COLLEGE STUDENTS AND PROSPECTIVE COLLEGE STUDENTS INTERESTED IN SPECIALIZING IN LAW ENFORCEMENT, AND LAW ENFORCEMENT PERSONNEL WHO LACKED A COLLEGE DEGREE AND/OR THE NECESSARY PROFESSIONAL AND TECHNICAL SKILLS DEMANDED BY HIGH-QUALITY LAW ENFORCEMENT PROGRAMS. WHILE THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSISSIPPI'S PROGRAM HAS BEEN DEMONSTRABLY MORE SUCCESSFUL IN REACHING THE FIRST OF THESE GROUPS, THE PASSAGE OF THE OMNIBUS CRIME CONTROL ACT OF 1968 SHOULD GO FAR TOWARD IMPLEMENTING THE SECOND OF THE SECONDARY OBJECTIVES. THE PRIMARY OBJECTIVE AND THE SECONDARY OBJECTIVES HAVE BEEN ACHIEVED BEYOND THE EXPECTATIONS OF THE ORIGINATORS OF THE PROGRAM. WHILE THERE IS ROOM FOR CONTINUED PROGRESS, IT IS APPARENT THAT THE PROGRAM HAS BEEN SUCCESSFUL. (AUTHOR ABSTRACT)
