In December 1991, the Chancellor's Office for the California Community Colleges (CCC) collected enrollment data at 49 of the state's 107 community colleges, representing approximately 54% of the total credit enrollment, in order to gain an estimate of changes, class sizes and unserved populations. Results of the survey include the following: (1) despite budget cuts, fall 1991 enrollment increased by an estimated 1.5% over fall 1990 (an estimated total of 22,000 students), apparently as a result of accommodating students diverted from the state's four-year institutions; (2) it appears that underrepresented new students and students seeking job retraining were often unable to enroll, either being "turned away" or withdrawing because they could not get classes; (3) the CCC's could not accommodate 120,000 potential students, two-fifths of whom withdrew between the first and fourth weeks of the fall term; (4) an estimated 5,000 college course sections were eliminated, generally by consolidating low-enrollment sections of multi-section courses; (5) continuing students and, sometimes, students in special programs received priority for course enrollments; (6) average class section size increased by 5% over 1990, to 31 students per class, the highest level in at least 10 years; (7) most colleges increased full-time faculty and cut part-time faculty and support staff positions; and (8) two-thirds of the colleges reported that they have not settled their collective bargaining agreements for management, certified, and classified staff. Detailed data tables, a copy of the survey instrument, and a summary of enrollment and budget trends in seven other states, are included. (PAA)
