Book Description
This report is one of several efforts designed to monitor outcomes in Washington's higher education system, and fulfills the biennial requirement that the Higher Education Coordinating Board (HECB) inform the higher education and fiscal committees of the legislature of progress toward goals. The portrait that emerges from this review of achievements at the baccalaureate institutions is one of strong performance. Degree production is rising and efficiency improvements are occurring. High demand degree production is expected to increase in the next few years after enrollments funded in 2003, 2006, and 2007-09 have been in place long enough for students to complete degrees. In addition, progress is being made with the focus in the statewide Strategic Master Plan on demand for degrees in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) fields and health care. Particularly noteworthy are the strong gains in the graduation rates for first-time full-time freshmen within six years. Sustaining the levels of progress described would be difficult under the best circumstances, and the report concludes that the current recession poses a serious challenge to the Legislature and the state's higher education institutions. Particularly problematic is that progress made in the last two biennia may be eroded by reductions in 2009--11. Three appendices are included: (1) Baccalaureate Performance Review; (2) Performance Expectations; and (3) Community and Technical College System Performance Review. (Contains 7 endnotes and 6 figures.).

Book Description
This report updates the California Postsecondary Education Commission on progress toward implementing the recommendations adopted in March 2005 to establish a higher education accountability framework to improve the performance and quality of higher education in California. The Commission adopted five recommendations: (1) The Legislature should enact a statutory accountability framework to assess the performance and effectiveness of public colleges and universities in meeting the State's needs; (2) Priority should be put first on developing a framework that assists State policymakers in the governance of higher education; and subsequently, efforts should be made to build capacity within the framework to assist higher education consumers; (3) The accountability framework should have at least five goals--enhance access and diversity, improve student success, ensure quality education, benefit the public, and further administrative efficiency; (4) Specific indicators should be adopted to measure progress toward achieving each goal; and (5) Legislation should delegate authority to the Commission to develop and implement the framework and should provide resources to do so. The Commission plans to complete reports for the remaining eleven performance measures by December 2007. These measures will be delivered to the Commission in phased approaches at the June, September and December 2007 meetings.
