Community College of Rhode IslandBeneath the Surface: What Have We Learned?

• 24% of our students are enrolled at multiple “sites”• DownCity: Highest-- % First Generation, % Pell awards, % under 18

years of age and % minority• Liston “site”: Highest % females on campus (DL slightly higher);

highest % of students attending part time of 4 campuses• Only 28% of Liston students are full time• Three sites report minority % above 53%: Off-Campus 82%;

DownCity 59% and Liston 54%• Westerly, Newport and Distance Learning have low % of minorities• 43% of students enrolled in Distance Learning are full time• About 64% awarded some financial aid at Liston and DownCity • Most are High School graduates; 10% or less GED’s (data & myths)

Community College of Rhode IslandHow Can We Use This Information to Improve

How We Serve Our Students?

• More questions from what we have learned??• Additional Information?? Example: Student major by site; Students

by city/town by gender & ethnicity & age group; Trends• Another example: Breakdown of course enrollments by site, by day,

evening, weekend and “no schedule;” Many others• Planning &Public policy implications? (Note: www.RIdatahub.org) • It’s about building business intelligence (knowledge from data) to

improve how we serve out students

“Greatest problem is preconceived ideas; we must use visualization and highly contextualized information in order to address improvements…”
