The second annual report on freshmen at the College of Staten Island (CSI), City University of New York is presented. Data are largely descriptive and focus on the academic nature of the class. Statistical comparisons to the previous class are included to offer a broad picture. Six sections focus on full-time student profile, full-time student performance, full-time student retention, part-time student profile, part-time student performance, and part-time student retention. Tables include age by gender, comparison by age, high school average, curriculum choices, grades in remedial courses, and retention 1986 and 1987. Three graphs are overall high school average, grade point average (GPA), and GPA and high school average. Significant findings include the following: 89% of all full-time freshmen were under 21 years of age, and 90% lived with their parents; 70% of students who left the college were in academic difficulty after 1 year; retention of 1986 full-time freshmen after 2 years increased 4.2% over the previous 4-year period; there was an 8% increase in Technology/Engineering enrollments in 1987; 50% of part-time students attended classes during the day; and 75% of part-time students in remedial mathematics courses failed. It is noted that CSI is particular in having an island location and having a distinctive emergence as a four-year institution from the merger of already existing upper and lower division colleges.
