Comprehensive Arkansas Higher Education Annual Report Comprehensive Arkansas Higher Education Annual Report December 1, 2013 College-Going Rates Arkansas Department of Higher Education 423 Main Street, Suite 400, Little Rock, AR 72201 Agenda Item No. 1 Higher Education Coordinating Board July 26, 2013 Report on the College-Going Rate of Public School Graduates ________________________ Attachment 1-A College-Going Rate by Institution Attachment 1-B College-Going Rate History Attachment 1-C NCES (National Center for Education Statistics) Table 234 Attachment 1-D College-Going Rate by Race/Ethnicity and Gender Attachment 1-E College-Going Rate by County Attachment 1-F College-Going Rate by High School District Attachment 1-G Recently Graduated Public High School Students: Where They Attend College The college-going rate measures the proportion of students enrolling in postsecondary education in the fall semester after finishing high school, in most cases, immediately after high school. Since most students enrolling in postsecondary education do so immediately after completing high school, the college-going rate is an indicator of the total proportion that will or did enroll in postsecondary education. The percentage, therefore, reflects the accessibility of higher education as well as students’ assessment of the value of attending college when compared to working, entering the military, traveling, or following other pursuits. New Methodology: This report reflects a new methodology. The new methodology began with the 2010 Fall College-Going Rate report. This new methodology focuses on students that (1) graduated from an Arkansas public school district in Academic Year 2011-2012, (2) are first-time entering students in the 2012 Fall term, and (3) are Arkansas residents. This new methodology more closely follows that used by the National Center for Education Statistics (NECS). However, there are three differences: (a) NECS filters by the age range of 16-24 – ADHE ignores age but focuses on high school graduates from the previous year as most all high school graduates are between the ages of 16 and 24; (b) NCES includes GED students as their report is based on a survey. ADHE does not have data on annual graduating classes of GED students, therefore, GED students are excluded; and (c) Since the NCES report is a survey, it may include private high schools and home school students. ADHE has no data on annual graduating classes of private high schools or home school students. ADHE obtains data on graduating classes of Arkansas public high schools (from the Arkansas 1-1 Agenda Item No. 1 July 26, 2013 Department of Education). Therefore, the new methodology is a College- Going Rate calculation for Arkansas public high school graduates only. Old Methodology: The old methodology consisted of a Fall student cohort of (1) first-time, (2) full-time, and (3) on-campus students that attend an Arkansas public or independent institution after completing high school or GED. The college-going rate for all Arkansas public and independent institutions for the 2012 Fall term was 52.9 percent. This represents an increase of 0.7 percentage points from the previous fall term. Note that over the 8-year period reviewed, the CGR has been increasing for all but one period (2009 Fall). NOTE: Data for the Private/Independent institutions were not available until the 2010 Fall semester. 1-2 Agenda Item No. 1 July 26, 2013 The share of CGR students at 4-Year Universities has increased from 31.2 percent to 33.0 percent (an increase of 1.8 percentage points). The share of CGR students at 2-Year Colleges has increased from 14.5 percent to 18.2 percent (an increase of 3.7 percentage points). The majority of CGR students attend 4-Year Universities. 1-3 Agenda Item No. 1 July 26, 2013 Gender: As shown below, females go to college at higher rates than males. Race/Ethnicity: As shown below, American Indians/Alaskan Natives and Asians have the highest college-going rates. NOTE: This report does not take into account students that go to college out-of- state, out-of-country, or to institutions that do not participate in the AHEIS/SISDB reporting system. 1-4 Agenda Item No. 1 July 26, 2013 UAMS shows 0 students above as they do not accept first-time entering freshmen due to the lack of a general education curriculum. 1-5 Agenda Item No. 1 July 26, 2013 Harding University (HU), Lyon College (LC), Philander Smith College (PSC), and Williams Baptist College (WBC) are not shown in the above chart due to FERPA (less than 10 students). ADHE Executive Staff recommend that the AHECB accept this report. 1-6 ATTACHMENT 1-A College Going Rate by Institution Academic Year = 2013 (2012-2013), 2012 Fall Term Students graduated from High School in 2012 from an Arkansas Public High School All students are first-time entering Arkansas residents College Going Rate for the 2012 Fall Term College Going Rate for the 2012 Fall Term Inst.

The importance of the Social Studies Curriculum Frameworks to Arkansas K-12 education cannot be overlooked. Parents and educators readily agree on the importance of developing reading, writing and math skills. They even agree in our technological society on the importance of teaching science, but what about social studies? It is through the study of social studies that students become aware of the world around them and how that world directly impacts their lives. By learning about economics, civics and government, geography and history, students are able to develop core beliefs and values, an understanding of how the past has shaped the present and will shape the future, and the interconnectedness of the content areas.
