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

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,
Police, Fire, DOJ, Parks…

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

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.
