Multiple college offices and campus departments play a critical role in preserving and enhancing the diversity and equity of students. These divisions include, but are not limited to the Office of the President, the Office of the Vice President for Instruction, the Office of the Vice President of Student Services, and the Office of the Vice President of Administration. Programs and departments within these offices directly or indirectly provide support and coordination to enhance student equity. Some programs and departments are more closely involved than others in the provision of these efforts. For the specific purpose of this Student Equity Plan the identified target groups include American Indians or Alaskan Natives, Asian or Pacific Islanders, Blacks, Hispanics, Whites, men, women, and persons with disabilities. These are the same groups that the Office of The Chancellor has recognized as participants in Student Equity Plans. Goals Student Equity goals and activities are consistent, realistic, and in keeping with the overall advancement of Student Equity efforts. Sacramento City College aims to create a supportive and dynamic campus environment that contributes to the overall growth and development of students. The Student Equity Committee collaborated with academic divisions and student support services in fulfilling the goals as stated in the Campus Based Research Section. The Student Equity goals are communicated campus wide through minutes distribution and committee members working as liaisons to all college constituencies. Activities The Student Equity Committee meets monthly to discuss student equity issues. In the meantime, the committee also works with the Planning, Research, and Institutional Effectiveness Office to conduct research and collect data related to student equity issues. Presentations of the student equity data will be made to the campus community to educate and inform the campus of the latest developments and work that has been done by the committee. In addition, various forums have been planned to involve the campus addressing concerns and discussing potential strategies regarding student equity issues. 4 Los Rios Community College District - Sacramento City College Resources Budgeted Institutional Involvement Multiple college programs and departments within all divisions impact and promote Student Equity functions by design. Just as all programs and departments can significantly effect recruitment and retention initiatives, so do these units advance and advocate for an equitable student equity support system. Engaging discussions and recommendations take place in multiple settings including, but not limited to college standing committees such as Student Equity Committee, Matriculation Committee, Curriculum Committee, etc. Institutional Commitment A.

The committee identified barriers to success, reviewed and updated the goals and activities of the 2000 plan and continued to promote the inclusion of the Student Equity accountability measures in the campus processes for program review, program unit planning, campus research cycle, and overall campus planning. In the meantime, the committee has focused on the prior commitment and continues to support the campus’ on-going efforts, reinforce current planning and current efforts, and devise additional ways the committee can support individual efforts to meet equity goals.

COURSE COMPLETION. Ratio of the number of credit courses that students by population group actually complete by the end of the term compared to the number of courses in which students in that group are enrolled on the census day of the term. 11 Los Rios Community College District - Sacramento City College 2. COURSE COMPLETION. Ratio of the number of credit courses that students by population group actually complete by the end of the term compared to the number of courses in which students in that group are enrolled on the census day of the term. “Course Completion” means the successful completion of a credit course for which a student receives a recorded grade of A, B, C, or Credit. “Each population group of students” means American Indians or Alaskan natives, Asian or Pacific Islanders, Blacks, Hispanics, Whites, men, women, and persons with disabilities (Title 5, 54220(d)). All Courses During the 2002-2003 academic year successful completion rates for students in all courses by ethnicity from 51.44% for Blacks, 56.66% for Native Americans, 60.99% for Hispanics, 65.24% for Other, 65.62% for Filipinos, 70.01% for Asians, to 70.99% for Whites. Successful completion rates for students in all courses by gender were 64.32% for males compared to 67.06% for females. Students with disabilities had a 65.58% successful completion rate in all courses, compared to a rate of 65.90% for non-DSPS students. In the 2002-2003 academic year, Black students had the lowest completion rates among all levels of courses, with the lowest rate (44.66%) in basic skills courses. However, this rate has improved over the 1997-1998 data, when the rate was 37.92%. Their completion of vocational education courses dropped from 66.03% in 1997-1998 to 58.11% in 2002-2003. Regarding the completion of transfer courses, the rate has increased from 52.08% in 1997-1998, to 53.15% in 2002-2003. During the academic year of 2002-2003, Native American students had the next to lowest completion rates among all levels of courses, with the lowest rate (44.96%) in basic skills courses. However, this rate has improved over the 1997-1998 data, when the rate was 36.11%. In 2002-2003, they had the best success (66.13%) with completion of vocational education courses. This rate has decreased – in 1997-1998 it was 87.50%. Regarding the completion of transfer courses, the rate has decreased from 61.68% in 1997-1998, to 58.79% in 2002-03. Hispanic students had the third lowest completion rates (60.99%) among all levels of courses. However, this rate has improved over the 1997-1998 data, when the rate was 57.49%. This group’s rate of completion of vocational educational courses was 73.52% in the academic year of 2002-2003. This rate has decreased slightly – in 1997-1998 it was 86.85%. Regarding the completion of transfer courses, the rate has increased from 60.38% in 1997-1998, to 62.54% in 2002-2003. 12 Los Rios Community College District - Sacramento City College CAMPUS-BASED RESEARCH The completion rates for Asian and White students were similar across courses. In 2002-2003 Asian and White students had their lowest completion rates (62.76% and 66.93%) in basic skills courses, and the most successful completion rates (79.95% and 81.28%) in vocational education courses. Regarding the completion of transfer courses, during 2002-2003, Asians had a slightly lower completion rate (70.78%) than Whites (71.38%). This rate has decreased from 72.56% in 1997-98, when Asians had a slightly higher completion rate in transfer courses than Whites (71.58%). During the 2002-2003 academic year, female students had higher completion rates than male students across courses. Their highest completion rates were in vocational education courses, with 77.62% female to 73.60% male. Next was completion of transfer courses, with 67.56% female to 65.69% male. Lowest completion rates were in basic skills courses, 61.82% female to 50.85% male, this course type having the greatest difference. The completion rates for all courses between female and male students have not changed significantly between 1997-1998 and 2002-2003. Non-DSPS students in 2002-2003 had higher completion rates in basic skills courses, 58.18%, than students with disabilities, with 56.35%. Non-DSPS students also had higher completion rates in vocational education courses, 76.19%, than students with disabilities, at 72.41%, this course type having the greatest difference. Students with disabilities had a higher completion rate in transfer courses, 69.25%, than non-DSPS students with 66.63%. These data trends were consistent with 1997-1998, with the exception of basic skills courses. In 1997-1998 students with disabilities had a much higher completion rate in basic skills courses, 62.00%, than nonDSPS students with 51.55%.

Los Rios Community College District - Sacramento City College CAMPUS-BASED RESEARCH 5. TRANSFER. Ratio of the number of students by population group who complete a minimum of 12 units and have attempted a transfer level course in mathematics or English to the number of students in that group who actually transfer after one or more (up to six) years. From the data on the following pages, a total of 942 students transferred to UC and CSU in 2002-2003. Among these students, 12 are Native Americans, 101 are Hispanic/Latino and 53 are African American. Comparing these data in 1998-1999, the total number of students transferring to UC/CSU decreased by 42 students (4%), however, the total number of minority students decreased by only 2%. There was a slight increase for Hispanic/Latino students (from 95 students to 101). The number of Asian transfer students remained the same (279 students). The number of African American transfer students decreased to 69 to 53 and the number of Native American transfer students decreased from 13 to 12. The rate of students in the 1993-1994 cohort who transferred by spring 1999 was 47.4% compared to an expected rate (using the state formula) of 42.1%. In this year, SCC ranked 16th out of 107 community colleges in achieving a higher than expected transfer rate. The following year, SCC ranked 11th in the state, and by fall 95, SCC ranked first in the state in transferring more students than would be expected, given the demographics of the students who attend SCC.
