Background for Expanding Educational Equity. A Technical Supplement to the Report of the Intersegmental Policy Task Force on Assembly Concurrent Resolution 83, "Expanding Educational Equity in California's Schools and Colleges". Commission Report 86-5.
California State Postsecondary Education Commission, Sacramento.
Information on educational equity in California is presented in this supplementary report. Issues in the state, resources, proposals, and areas for action are addressed. Areas of analysis include: income for men and women by race and years of education; the numbers of Black and Hispanic students that graduate from high school, enroll in college, and graduate from state universities compared to the number for all ethnic groups; and enrollment in community colleges, completion of occupational programs, and transfer to four-year institutions by ethnic group. For 18 state programs that were designed to overcome disadvantages of low income and minority status groups, information is provided on the implementing agent, year started, target group, objectives, services, number of students served annually, and 1983-1984 funding. Features of effective programs at public school and college levels are identified, and suggestions from seven state acts concerning educational opportunity are presented. Also covered are objectives and implementation steps to promote educational equity for secondary schools, community colleges, and four-year colleges. Thirteen display tables are included in the report. The text of Resolution Chapter 68 of California Assembly Concurrent Resolution No. 83 is appended. (SW)
