520 |a In May 1983, questionnaires were sent to all students who graduated from Oklahoma City Community College (OCCC) between December 1981 and July 1982. A total of 404 questionnaires were mailed, soliciting information on educational objectives, current educational/employment status, college major, ratings of college services, transfer experiences, and occupational experiences. Study findings, based on a 40.6% response rate, included the following: (1) in comparison to previous years, the proportion of students attending OCCC to improve their job skills and to prepare for employment decreased, while those looking to transfer to a four-year college and those attending for personal enrichment increased; (2) the percent of the respondents employed part-time increased from 9.9% to 13.4%, while those employed full-time fell to an all-time low of 56.7%; (3) the quality of instruction was rated good or very good by 89.7% of the respondents; (4) in 1981, 18.2% of the transferring students attended Central State University (CSU) and 30.7% attended the University of Oklahoma (UO); while in 1982, 37.5% of the students attended CSU and 26.2% attended UO; (5) 8% of the transferring students in 1982 reported having problems, compared to 16.5% in 1981; (6) 52.6% of the employed graduates were working in a field directly related to their college major; (7) of the graduates who were not employed in a field related to their major, 23.2% had transferred to a four-year school, 6.1% could not find a job in their field, 5.5% found a better paying job in another field, and 4.3% were not sufficiently qualified to work in their field. The questionnaire and item-by-item response data are included. (AYC)
