摘要

目标/研究问题:本研究的目的是考察提供社区大学学士学位(CCB)的项目在多大程度上解决了代表性不足的少数种族(URM)的入学和公平问题。该研究首先旨在了解管理人员如何描述CCB在促进URM公平方面的目的。接下来,本研究探讨了CCB项目如何结合政策和实践,促进URM学生的入学和成功。方法:本研究采用多案例研究设计,重点关注在几个社区学院提供学士学位的三个州。对各州提供CCB项目的两所大学的管理人员进行了采访。各大学在人口结构、CCB课程的数量和类型方面存在差异。结果:管理人员描述了CCB如何促进社会经济流动性,从而促进公平,特别是对低收入学生。调查结果表明,只有一些人关注提供URM,这在很大程度上取决于URM在周围社区和支线项目中的代表性。很少有外联工作和支助服务专门针对URM。结论/贡献:鉴于URM主要集中在社区大学,并且URM和非URM在大学毕业方面存在显著差距,CCB可以作为减少这些差距的教育政策。由于CCB主要被认为是满足劳动力需求的关键,如果没有有意的外联和支持URM,增加URM的机会可能会受到限制。

Promoting Access and Equity for Underrepresented Racial Minorities? An Examination of Policies and Practices in Community College Baccalaureate Programs
Objective/Research Question: The purpose of this study was to examine the extent to which programs offering community college baccalaureates (CCBs) address access and equity for underrepresented racial minorities (URMs). The study first aimed to understand how administrators described the purpose of CCBs with regard to advancing equity for URMs. Next, the study explored how CCB programs incorporate policies and practices advancing access and success of URM students. Method: The study employed a multiple-case study design by focusing on three states offering bachelor’s degrees at several community colleges. Interviews with administrators were conducted at two colleges offering CCB programs in each state. Colleges differed in demographic composition and in the number and type of CCB programs offered. Results: Administrators described how CCBs advanced socioeconomic mobility, which promoted equity, particularly for low-income students. Findings suggested that only some attention was placed on providing access to URMs, which was largely contingent on the representation of URMs in the surrounding community and feeder programs. Few outreach efforts and support services specifically targeted URMs. Conclusion/Contributions: Given that URMs are largely concentrated at community colleges and significant gaps exist between URMs and non-URMs in college completion, CCBs might serve as an educational policy to reduce those gaps. As CCBs are primarily framed as essential to meeting workforce needs, increased opportunities for URMs may be limited without intentional efforts to outreach and support URMs.

期刊介绍: The Community College Review (CCR) has led the nation for over 35 years in the publication of scholarly, peer-reviewed research and commentary on community colleges. CCR welcomes manuscripts dealing with all aspects of community college administration, education, and policy, both within the American higher education system as well as within the higher education systems of other countries that have similar tertiary institutions. All submitted manuscripts undergo a blind review. When manuscripts are not accepted for publication, we offer suggestions for how they might be revised. The ultimate intent is to further discourse about community colleges, their students, and the educators and administrators who work within these institutions.
