A Census Based Proxy for Student Socioeconomic Status and Income
Based on census data for income, education (BA or higher) and occupation (professional/managerial)
Student address matched to census
Student assigned median household income and SES for area mapped

Participation rates measure how close the resemblance is between state population and CTC students
Part Rate = % of students ÷ % state populationPart Rate less than 1 = less than populationPart Rate 1 = Parity Part Rate greater than 1 = more than population

Students socioeconomic differences become even more magnified by colleges, raising the question, “How best can system support colleges so varied in student body and community make-up?”

Sample Questions – Serving Our Minority Population
Familiar Problem: Conflicting methods of tracking ethnic vs. race codes. Future data sets should match.
Census Data 1990 & 2000Separate ethnic and race code fieldsCan choose “Hispanic” as well as a race code
SBCTC Data 1993 & 2001One ethnic code fieldChoosing “Hispanic” precludes choosing another option
