Variant names

Biographical notes:

The National University Extension Association (NUEA), founded in 1915 and composed of universities and colleges (mostly state universities) engaged in extension programs, has as its purpose the development and advancement of ideals, methods, and standards in continuing education and extension. Its activities include a national annual conference, divisions organized by concerns, and publications. Its regular publications are Guide to Correspondence Study in Colleges and Universities (biannual), NUEA Newsletter (biweekly), Proceedings of annual meetings, The Spectator (bimonthly), and Programs and Registrations (annually, published jointly with the AUEC).

In 1980, the National University Extension Association changed its name to the National University Continuing and Adult Education Association (NUCEA) and then in 1998 to University Continuing and Adult Education Association (UCEA).
