| 520 | |a A follow-up study was conducted of stopouts and alumni of William Rainey Harper College (WRHC) to assess the long-term impact of the college upon its students. The targeted population was composed of 989 career and transfer alumni (who had accumulated 48 hours or more in a career or baccalaureate-oriented program during 1974-75), and 189 stopout students (i.e., credit students who left WRHC during 1975-76 before accumulating 48 credit hours). Based on responses from 57.5% of the career alumni, 52.6% of the transfer alumni, and 52% of the stopouts, the study findings revealed: (1) 86% of the career alumni, 73% of the transfer alumni, and 18% of the stopouts eventually obtained an associate degree at WRHC; (2) 71% of the career alumni, 80% of the transfer alumni, and 78% of the stopouts were employed in 1981; (3) 87% of the transfer alumni and 46% of the other two groups had attended another college since leaving WRHC; (4) 58% of the career alumni, 37% of the transfer alumni, and 36% of the stopouts were employed in fields related to their WRHC major; (5) stopouts generally rated WRHC more highly than did alumni; and (6) the mean salaries for all three groups were comparable, averaging between $21,500 and $23,000 per year. Extensive data tables and the survey instrument are included in the study report. (Author/HB) | ||
