us for a phone briefing releasing a new report:
October
27th, 2010 | 10:30am - 11:30am
For Call-In information, Please RSVP Here
On October 27th, The Campaign for College Opportunity will
host a conference call that will focus on the release of a new report
that details the urgent need to improve student outcomes, particularly
for black and Latino students, at California Community Colleges.
Because California’s community colleges play such an
important role in producing college graduates in the state, including
preparing students to transfer to a four-year university, it is vital
that students are achieving the goals they have when they start college.
This report tracks more than a quarter of a million students who entered
a California Community College during 2003-04, analyzes their progress
and outcomes over six years by major racial/ethnic populations. The
study highlights the urgent need to improve student outcomes in our
community colleges, particularly for Blacks and Latinos and makes
recommendations as to how this data can be used to improve state and
system policies aimed at better student success rates.
Divided We Fail
was produced by the Institute for Higher Education Leadership &
Policy (IHELP) at California State University, Sacramento for The
Campaign for College Opportunity and will be co-released in coordination
with the 15 organizations shown below.
The call will feature the following confirmed panelists who
will present the report findings and recommendations and share their
responses:
- Michele Siqueiros, Executive Director, The Campaign for
College Opportunity
- Nancy Shulock, Executive Director, IHELP
- Colleen Moore, Research Specialist, IHELP
- Eloy Ortiz Oakley, President, Long Beach City College
