The book analyses and evaluates several key community college
reform programs that emerged after the Recession of 2008 and as a
result of major initiatives in California, New York, Tennessee,
Florida, Connecticut and Wisconsin. Because of the economic
downturn in the early 21st Century, an already eroding financial
base for public higher education saw even further losses. At the
same time, enrollments were booming, particularly in the two-year
sector where many students who would have traditionally forgone a
college education, were now enrolling to ensure their
competitiveness in a harsh labor market. Chapters in this book
examine the development and implementation of initiatives and
accountability measures imposed across the states by the Obama
administration, and consider their effectiveness in reducing the
impact of the loss of students, and their role in improving
courses. This book will be of interest to postgraduates and
researchers exploring the history of education in the United
States, as well as academic administrators, faculty, and
policy-makers with an interest in reform-based practices that have
been successfully implemented in community colleges.
