问题     Although not identical, the terms "college and university" are often used interchangeably in the United States.There is no legal or official control over the institution’s choice of one or the other as part of its name. Over the years, many institutions change their names as they add new programs and levels of study. Usually, a college offers a four-year program of study leading toward the bachelor’s degree. Colleges may be independent, offering only undergraduate programs, or they may be a part of a university that offers both undergraduate and graduate degrees. Universities emphasize research and often include professional schools, undergraduate college of arts and sciences, and graduate schools. In 1989 and 1990, nearly 138,000 foreign students attended four-year programs leading to the bachelor’s degree.
    There are over 2,000 traditional four-year colleges and universities in the United States, and each has a unique identity. Each college determines its own goals, emphases and admissions standards. Liberal arts colleges, for example, emphasize excellence in teaching basic subjects such as humanities (人文学科), natural sciences, social sciences and languages.
    Besides liberal arts colleges, there are many other types of colleges. Historically, some colleges have admitted only male, only female or only black students; however, most now are open to all academically qualified students who apply. Other colleges have a particular religious emphasis. Colleges and universities that stress career preparation may have special cooperative education programs or intemships(实习期) in which students work part-time as a requirement for the degree.
