II I" 1 11 1 Prwkience last September expanded educatitmal opportunities kr inner cfty residents. Openktg the Provkience Cernpus during tough fiscal times created challenges in terms of staffing and resources, but the efforts of faculty owl administration were quickly rewarded with an initial enrollment of over MO students. Eighty percent of those students were in the fkst generation of their bunny to attend college, and 74 percent were minority students. There have been convincing arguments made that the future economic strength of our nation will depend on our ability to educate our minority population. Natkrnal reports have suggested that to succeed in this regard will require more than expanded minority recruitment programs. Colleges must create an environment where minorities can succeed, an environment which promotes diversity, values cultural differences and provides the support programs which will enable students with special needs to meet their educedional goals. When the Prwidence Campus was opened last year, there was a conscious effort to create a campus which could be model for promoting pluralism and cultural diversity. The fact that the campus is growing and thriving Indicates that these efforts have been successful. The Community College of Rhode Island has also become a model in developing successful high school-college partnerships. Four years ago. CCRI responded to a national call to rescue potential high school dropouts, the nonmotivated students who have become known as °the negkacted majority.° by offering an alternative to the general education optban which has traditionally left students ill-prepared for either work or college. CCRI developed the 2+2 tech involves two years of study at the high school level and two years at Call. ere equipped with the technical skills they need to move into today's work force. To provide ackalts with the skills they need to keep up with the changing technology, a different kind of training may be required. While same adults may wish to pursue an associate degree, for others, short term training is a more attractive option. Technical training and retraining for adult workers is offered at Call throutth customized and special grant programs. The WRI Center for Business and Industrial TraMing works directly with companies to train employees on a contract basis, and programs ftmded through agencies such as Waldo= MOO or the State Division of Vocational and Adult Education offer short term training for adults seeking to enter the work force. Because the College has made it a priority to reach out to diverse populations as weN as serving the kwareasing number of mtraditioner high school graduates, enrollments have reached an all time high this year. In Rhode Island, CCRI has truly "come of age." Edward J. Liston Presidem prep-associate degree program which has become so stxcessful that last spring the College was selected as one of the three community colleges nationwide to receive the MCJC Tech Prep/Associate Degree Award for program excellence. Twenty-six of the state's 39 high schools are participating in the program.

Nearly 650 students enrolled in college credit courses during the first semester of operation, with an additional 150 attglents participating in the GED weparation and testing wogram. During the spring, 1991 semester, enrollment junwed to 983. a 54% increase over the fall semester. A sunray conducted in December, 1990 indicated that students enrolling at the Providence Campus Me, for the most pen, haff older, female, minority students. 6 WO either unemployed or worldng part time. Students selected CCRI Providence primarily because of location and cost. The majority resided within three miles of the campus and traveled to class by car. After tabulating the survey responses, the Office of Institutional Research and Planning compared the Providence Campus student profile with that of the College as a whole. The comparison revealed that the Providence Campus was more heavily female (74% as compared with 63% for the entire College population), with a larger part-time enrollment (74% as compared with 70%). ST CRY AVAILABLE C Thirty-five percent of the Providence Campus population wail under 25 years of age, compared with 45% of the College as a whole. The CCRI papulelion as a whole was overwhelmingly white (90%), while at the Providence Canvus, 74% of the students were minorities-45% blewk, 26% Hispanic, 10% Asian and 3% American Indian. Students at CCRI Providence can enroll in courses leading to an associate's degree in liberal ans, business or general studies. But the traditional college coyrses are only a small part of what's happming at the Providence Campus. The campus is a major GED preparation and testing center. Remedial and English-ase-second-language programs prepare students to begin college COMO work and short-term, non-credit vocational training programs are offered by the CCRI Office of Comnunity Services. The Educational Opportunities Center, Project Sphere, and the Access to Opportunity Program offer a variety of support services for students; the Small Business Development Center offers assistance to minority businesses; and the Langston Hughes Center fa the Arts and the (link Heritage Society sponsor programs which bring the community into the facility. Student organizations such as the Lalin American Student Organization. the Third World Organization, the International Club and the New American Club sponsor a variety of lectures, performances and cultural events. Special events during the past year Included a children's dinner theatre and an international food festival. Minority recruitment and retention is a priority at CCRI, and at the Providence Campus an effort has been made to create an environment where minorities can succeed. Through the dedicated efforts of faculty and staff, CCRI Providence is off to a strong start. Increasing numbers of students are sedectirv CCRI as a first college experience. The expanded Interest in the liberal alts and general studies ainicula at the Community College indicates that many new students are studying at CCM with tiva purpose of transferring to a four-year college or university. The Community College of Rhode Island has made strides in accommodating the record number of ttudents. SWIMS to students haw been irrproved with the establishment of the Providence Campus, as a rola of a better utilization of classroom space on the Warwick end Lincoln campuses, through the implementation of the telephone registration system and with the introduction of the degree audIV advisement system.

The increased interest in the Community College of Rhode Island by prospective students is evidenced by the nearly 50.000 inquiries that have been made to the Office of Admisskans and Records. For the fall, 1990, in spite of declines in the number of Rhode Island high school graduates, the Community College of Rhode Island increased its yield of that populatkon to 13.4%, for a total of 1250 spring, 1990 high school graduates who selected CCRI as their college of choice. 11111016bat z----- 11.1111.11 7 9 BEST COPY AVAILABLE - Community College of Mode Iskmd grants the Associate in Arts (AA), the Associate in Science (AA), the Associate in Applied Science (A.A.S.), the Associate in Applied Science in Technical Studies (A.A.S.-T.S.), and the Msociate in Fine Arts (ARA.) degrees.

Twenty students are enrolled in this techrkal health care program that will train them for a highdemand field. This is the first physical therapist assiaant program in the state. According to the U.S. Department of Labor, employment opportunities for physical therapist assistants are growing rapidly. This is the result of an increasing need for rehabilitation and long-term care services brought on by a growing eiderly population and advances hi rehabilitation medicine and theraputic techniques. The Community College of Rhode island first presented a proposal for the PTA program to the RI Board of Governors 41.1m. in the fall of 1988. The Board approved the program but its implementation had not been possible because of budgetary constraints. However, a great deal of interest has been expressed in this program by both potential employers and potential students. To help close the gap between the supply of and demand for physical therapist assistants, Mowport Hospital agreed to fund the program for two years beginning last July. In addition, the RI Department of Education, Division of Vocational and Adult Education funded program development, including the appointment of a program director.

Classified: Includes maintenance personnel, security officers, technicians, clerical staff, counselors, and nurses. b. Non-Classified: Professional staff which includes managers, co-ordinators, counselors, programmers, accountants, as well as some clerical staff, technicians, and paraprofessionals. c. Administration: Includes president, vice presidents, directors, deans, and associate and assistant deans and directors. Compared with 1989-90, the average descriptions of the three types of staff have changed only slightly. Approximately 43% of the non-classified staff have 15 or more years of service. The number of classified staff increased by six while the number of non-classified and administration taken together decreased by three.

This concern for keeping the tuition and fees at a modest level has generally resulted in increased tuitions each year that are similar to the Consumer Price Index changes. Most recently, however, these increases have exceeded the CPI. Combined tuition and fees increased 5.6 percent in 1988-89, 5.7 percent in 1989-90 and 9.6 percent in 1990-91. After adjusting for a $25 surcharge in the spring of 1991, tuition and fees jumped 19% in 1991-92.

These revenues represent the major portion of the funds available to the College and come primarily from two sources: State appropriations and tuition and fees. From 1976-77 to 1981-82 the student paid tuition and fees provided an increasing share of the revenues while the share from state appropriations declined. From 1982-83 to 1987-88 these percentages remained constant. In 1988-89 through 1990-91, the State appropriation contribution to general education revenues decreased and the tuition income increased proportionately.
