The article comments on the future of the Council for Exceptional Children (CEC). The author asserts that the CEC of the year 2000 is similar to the CEC of 1968. He predicts that the council's expansion and organizational progress in both the U.S. and Canada will increase by 2000. The membership of the council in 1968 is over 36,000 and by 2000 it will go over 100,000 members. However, the author suggests that institutional organizations like CEC are evolved and not revolutionized despite of its organizational progress. He also outlines several factors that could change the organization within the next 30 years.
