A list of college programs and a history of the University of Kentucky Community College System (UKCCS) begin this presentation and analysis of 1987-88 data on UKCCS enrollments, instructional programs, financial support, and student characteristics. Section I focuses on enrollment, providing fall 1987 headcount data for each of the 14 UKCCS campuses in terms of full-/part-time status, class, gender, and residence; full-time equivalent (FTE) enrollment data for 1964 and 1978-87; and headcount enrollment of first-time freshmen, 1977-1987. Section II examines headcount enrollment by degree level; program enrollment by gender; credit hours offered and FTE enrollment by degree and course level; UKCCS graduates by degree, college, and program; number and type of library materials supporting the instructional programs; educational level of full-time teaching staff; and staff and faculty development activities. Section III analyzes the financial support base of UKCCS, detailing general fund expenditures by function, expenditures from recurring general funds, general funds budgeted by function, and average faculty salaries by rank. Section IV examines the family income, ethnic status, and age of fall 1987 freshmen and compares their mean standardized test scores with those of similar groups in previous years. (EJV)
