Community College Survey of Student Engagement (CCSSE) Accountability Reporting for Community Colleges (ARCC) CSU Transfers CTE Rates Annual Report

Only 33% of first-time freshmen attain any outcome Only 1/3 of students with the intent of earning a certificate or

degree actually complete that goal Academically underprepared students are increasingly

successful in developmental course sequences, but this success does not transition to improved program completion rates

‘American Dream’ imperiled Divergent audiences –

politicians, businesses, community members, boards, 4 year institutions of higher education, municipalities, etc.

Complexity of student lives Research on community

college is lacking “Scalability”

With Resources: Open Access, Everything to everybody

Without resources: Budget cuts and workload reductions

“Who’s Crying Now” (Escape 1981)

On-time Budget (Prop. 25)

Solves a $15.7 Billion Budget Gap

Includes Spending Reductions $8.1 Billion

Includes New Revenue $6 Billion

Other Solutions $2.5 Billion

Creates Reserve $1 Billion

Relies on Voter Approval of Tax Initiative

Intent to “protect” education from cuts Refocus from Bonds, Budgets and Buildings… …to Student Equity, Success and Completion

Governor’s Proposed Tax Initiative

Raise income tax on

high-income tax payers for seven years

Raise state sales tax by one-quarter percent for four years

Estimated revenue from initiative $8.5 billion

“Hidden” cash – special parks accounts

“Raises” to legislative staff

“Expensive” public works projects

Pension reform still needed

40% of voters vote NO

Need 51%; polling 54%

Expect 10% drop

$5.4 billion from Proposition 98 (K-14) $250 million from UC; $250 million from CSU $97.6 million from Developmental Services,

If ballot initiative passes: No new reductions $50 million workload

restoration $159.9 million deferral

buy-down

If ballot initiative fails: No workload restoration No deferral buy-down Additional base cut

$338.6 million

Loss of restoration funding $377K No cash deferral buy-down

$1.6 million Apportionment payments still

40% for first 5 months Base cut of $3.45 million

Avoiding reductions relies on the passage of the November

tax initiative Board approved use of reserves

Resources are needed to fund student success More reductions means less access Cuts to education slows economic recovery How can we help students attain their goals?

Athletes train for years prior to the Olympics

Plan well in advance

Plan to succeed

Know your goal

Determine your path

Accomplish what you set out to do

“Don’t Stop Believin” (Escape 1981)

History

Fall 2010 California state legislature directed the Board of Governors (BOG) to convene a task force to identify key factors that lead to student success

Fall 2011 Task force reported results to BOG

Spring 2012 BOG sought input from individuals and constituency groups to the recommendations of the task force

Summer/Fall Legislative and implementation timelines established 2012

Spring 2013- Implementation 2014

Characterized by 4 Themes: 1. Rationing access will be the norm

2. Community Colleges can no longer

be all things to all people

3. Students need to be held accountable for their lack of progress or success

4. Students will be rewarded for successful behavior

Re-purpose and re-focus matriculation on core services of orientation, assessment, and counseling/advising to assist students in developing education plans

Leveraging technology to reach a greater number of students

Establish conditions for the BOG Fee Waiver

Implement the accountability scorecard

Establish statewide enrollment priorities

Identify students at risk for

academic or progress probation and provide interventions that may lead to eventual student success

Establish institutional research to evaluate the effectiveness of the Student Success and Support Programs and evaluate impact on student equity

Establish a reasonable, phased-in implementation period based on resources available

New procedure for disqualified and probation students

New federal standards for academic progress for financial aid students

New registration reprioritization New course repeat restrictions New drop/withdrawal standards

during weeks 3 and 4 of standard semesters

Coming Soon…

More registration reprioritization

New requirements to receive a Board of Governors (BOG) grant

Goal Related to Scheduling: Continue strategic scheduling. Collaboratively build a schedule that maximizes opportunities for students to meet educational goals, specifically by completing basic skills, degrees/certificates, and transfer pathways.

Maintain a diversity of course offerings throughout the day and evening Scheduling priority given to:

Courses within basic skills progression in Math and English

Courses that meet AA-T/AS-T degrees GE courses to support transfer students Courses that support programs that meet

demonstrated labor market needs (certificate and CTE degrees)

Courses that meet certificate requirements Glenn County offerings Summer-bridge type programs

Preparing for Two Scenarios: Prop 30 passes: Status quo schedule “The New Normal”

Prop 30 fails: A much smaller schedule – 800 FTES smaller

Completed:

Communication Studies

Administration of Justice

English

History

Psychology

Under Discussion for 2012-2013

Computer Science

Kinesiology

Mathematics

Music

Sociology

Spanish

Theater Arts

Analyze certificates and degrees by department with an eye towards streamlining offerings

Align Butte College GE requirements with CSU/IGETC requirements

Explore piloting streamlined GE pathways for CTE student cohorts

Pilot prerequisite enforcement in one GE area Evaluate accelerated basic skills efforts;

explore opportunities to refine and expand.

One Simple Step

Ask students:

What’s your educational goal?

How are you getting there?

Hope

Hope is like the sun, which,

as we journey toward it, casts the

shadow of our burden

behind us.
