The focus in student tracking today has shifted away from an examination of prospective students and students in academic difficulty, and toward an understanding of student progress through and beyond a single college or university. This new emphasis results from a variety of pressures: state and public calls for accountability, accreditation criteria that place greater attention on learning outcomes, recognition that enrollment does not ensure success, and an understanding that many students swirl through multiple institutions.
This is the 143rd volume of the Jossey-Bass higher education quarterly report series "New Directions for Community Colleges." Essential to the professional libraries of presidents, vice presidents, deans, and other leaders in today's open-door institutions, "New Directions for Community Colleges" provides expert guidance in meeting the challenges of their distinctive and expanding educational mission.
