SPRING 2006
GENERAL EDUCATION CORE AUDIT
This document is a repeat of the General Education Core Audit that I ran
last semester. Once again I have turned the data into charts that display
information for the general education core, for each goal within core, and
for each class within each goal. The data displayed, reading from top to
bottom, show:
Sections – The number of sections offered of a class or in a goal
#Full/Over – The number of sections that are either full or over-enrolled
Capacity – The capacity in terms of students for a course or goal
Enrolled – The number of students actually enrolled in a course or goal
% - The number of students enrolled as a percentage of the capacity
% by FT – the percentage of sections in a course or goal that are taught
by full-time faculty
I graphed only the last two categories, the number of students as a
percent of capacity in solid red, the percentage of sections in a course or
goal that are taught by full-time faculty in diagonal-line black fill.
Three things to note. (1) I pulled the information from Banner on
February 2nd so the figures should be a more accurate representation of
the work-load of core than last semester's report when I wasn't able to
get to the data until November, by which time many students had
dropped out of core classes. (2) However, as I was pulling the data I
found a few problems in coding some of the courses so if you see any
errors in the report please let me know. (3) In goal 8, the sciences, I
counted labs and lectures equally as sections, as I did last semester.
Summary Data for General Education Core, Spring 2006.
191 Sections, or 19.8 % of the 960 sections offered in total. (Fall '05
had 229 Sections which was 24.2% of all 944 sections offered)
51% of core sections offered by full time faculty (52% in Fall 05)
49% of core sections offered by adjunct faculty (48% in Fall '05)
3653 students enrolled, 83% of the available 4365 seats in general
education core. (Fall '05 had 4,575 students or 84% of available seats in
general education core)
