Zusammenfassung:The Center for Studies in Aging at the University of North Texas was among the first to offer graduate training in aging. The primary objective was to develop and implement a curriculum in long-term care administration. In the years since its establishment in 1967, the center has adapted its course offerings to meet the needs and career goals of a variety of students. Results of a 20-year alumni survey are presented. The selected characteristics are instructive and suggest new directions for future recruitment efforts.
