Legislated in 1962, the 13-college system enrolled 17,196 credit students in 1976 compared to 1,907 in 1967. Transfer students accounted for 37.4% of enrollment, Applied Science degree students accounted for 53.4%, and 9.2% had no degree objective. Fifty-four percent of the transfer students and 59% of the Applied Science degree students attended full-time. The total capital outlay for the system in 1975-76 was $12,517,033, with an average per student cost of $941.91. Entering students in 1976 averaged a mean composite ACT score of 15.7. Of all 1976 students, 26% report family incomes below $9,000, 80.6% are Caucasian, 35.3% are under 20 years of age and 34.8% are 26 or older. Data are presented longitudinally where appropriate: (1) by sex, college, degree level, and program; (2) on numbers of graduates, faculty degree levels, types and numbers of library materials, and in-service training activities; (3) on operating expenditures by college, services, function, general educational costs, and salaries; and (4) on ACT scores by sex and year, on ethnic enrollment, family income, and age distributions.
