A study was conducted at William Rainey Harper College (WRHC) to develop a profile of fall 1982 students, compare student and community demographic data, and analyze the percentage of community sub-groups served by the college. A random sample of 498 degree credit students and 300 continuing education students were surveyed. Based on responses from 90% of the degree credit and 82% of the continuing education students, and on 1980 census data, the study findings revealed: (1) 3.2% of the district population was enrolled in degree credit programs and 2% in continuing education programs; (2) 7.5% of the degree credit students and 11% of the continuing education students were from minority backgrounds, while 6.3% of the district's population was non-White or Hispanic; (3) of the degree credit students, 47% were male, 35% had some prior college experience, and 8% held a bachelor's degree (BA); (4) of the continuing education students, 40% were male, 65% had some prior college experience, and 31% held a BA; (5) 56% of the degree credit students were employed full-time, and only 15% planned to continue working in the same field; (6) primary enrollment influences for degree credit students were ability to enroll in a specific program, friends and relatives, convenience, and low cost; and (7) for continuing education students, primary reasons for enrolling at WHRC were specific programs, the semester schedule, and convenience. Data tables detailing results and the questionnaire are appended. (HB)
