Abstract | The attempts made by community colleges to "democratize" higher education are discussed from the standpoint of the goals and policy of community colleges, and an empirical study of tracking in higher education is presented. Five public goals of community colleges are given, as are three non-public goals. The study of tracking in higher education considers academic characteristics, social class, ethnic composition, and transfer and terminal students. Community college policy is described in the areas of occupational and remedial education. Concluding remarks are given, and footnotes, two tables, and a bibliography are provided. (DB) |
