The Underrepresented Groups Report provides community colleges with the opportunity to report on initiatives and strategies to increase participation and achievement among individuals with disabilities, minorities, and women. Underrepresented Groups Report production is an important annual statutory responsibility (Public Act 85-283). Each community college provides a report detailing current activities and programs aimed at strengthening participation and progress among traditionally underrepresented student populations. Illinois Community College Board (ICCB) staff summarizes the information provided by the individual colleges and forward it to officials from the Illinois Board of Higher Education (IBHE) who combine it with responses from the public universities and forwarded to the Governor and General Assembly. This report begins with an overview of the demographic characteristics of community college students and faculty. External comparative information is referenced where available. The focus topic for the current Underrepresented Groups Report explores the extent to which higher education is meeting the needs of individuals with disabilities. The report concludes with Future Directions and Recommendations. The following are appended: (1) Dollars and Staff Years Budgeted to Programs Serving Underrepresented Students and Staff at Illinois Community Colleges, Fiscal Years 2002 and 2003; (2) Enrollment of Students with Disabilities; and (3) Definitions for the Annual Report on Underrepresented Groups in Higher Education and Students Transitions Survey.
