Advantage of local colleges reaching the populace & making PHY accessible.
AIP Survey, 2003 - 25% of students take intro PHY nationwide at TYCs

Isolation issues for some TYC PHY faculty Professional development source from 4Y
research in current teaching pedagogy (PER, PEPTYC)
Transfer populations – compatible course offerings
Encourage more students to pursue STEM degrees
