The California Community College System….

March 20, 2007 By: richard.ginn Category: Uncategorized

has released a MASSIVE 750 plus page report on the community college educational system in California. It includes data on every single community college in the sate.

This report showcases a much rosier picture than the one I posted earlier on that shows only a 25% graduation rate for community college students in California.

The super sized report says that over 70% complete 30 or more credit hours. Depending on the college 50-66% graduate with a degree.

I do not know which one to fully believe.
