ABSTRACT Community colleges were among the hardest hit sectors of higher education during the Covid-19 pandemic and the resultant challenges have had lasting repercussions for students, faculty, and institutions. This exploratory study surveyed 320 community college faculty across six of the seven community colleges that make up the City University of New York (CUNY) in order to understand faculty perceptions of changes and challenges in community college education post-pandemic. Findings indicate that an overwhelming majority of survey respondents believe that there have been major changes in the community colleges where they teach since the pandemic and that these changes have either been largely negative or mixed. A majority of respondents identified students’ lack of academic preparation and academic disengagement as among the most significant changes and primary challenges facing their students post-pandemic. Respondents reported that students face greater external constraints, such as full-time employment, family responsibilities, and financial need, in their pursuit of a degree since the pandemic and that these challenges are exacerbated by the institutional push for full-time enrollment. Further, the findings reveal a perception of lack of administration support for faculty and an increase in transactional views of community college education. The study indicates a need for further research on challenges in community college education since the pandemic including the impact of online education on student learning and the campus community, the implications of AI tools on student learning, and which pedagogical practices, and college-level policies, genuinely foster student engagement and academic preparation in the post-pandemic era.

  • Burt R Meyers + 4 more

Cefaclor, a new oral cephalosporin, was administered to 18 normal human volunteers in either single or multiple doses of 250 and 500 mg. Mean serum concentrations of 6.09 and 12.8 microgram/ml were achieved 1 hour after single oral doses of 250 and 500 mg, respectively. The serum concentrations declined rapidly and no drug was detected at 4 hours. Very high concentrations of cefaclor were found in urine during the first 8 hours after ingestion of the drug. Forty-three per cent of the total dose was excreted in urine during the first 8 hours. There was no accumulation of drug in serum during the multiple-dose studies.

More Graduates: Two-Year Results from an Evaluation of Accelerated Study in Associate Programs (ASAP) for Developmental Education Students
  • Feb 10, 2014
  • SSRN Electronic Journal
  • Susan Scrivener + 1 more

Having a college degree is increas­ingly important in the U.S. labor market, and workers with a degree earn substantially more, on average, than those without. Recently there has been an un­precedented national focus on boosting the stubbornly low graduation rates of students in community colleges. Community colleges serve millions of the nation’s undergradu­ates, but only about one-third of those stu­dents graduate within five years. Graduation rates are even lower for students who enter college without the math, reading, or writing skills required for college-level courses and thus need to take developmental (remedial) courses. In addition, most college students take longer to graduate than is considered normal. For example, a survey of students who started at a public two-year college found that only 4 percent graduated with an associate’s degree within two years.Educators have tried many reforms to help improve the success rates of community college students. Most of the reforms have been short term, lasting only one or two semesters, and have addressed no more than a few barriers to student success. The Accelerated Study in Associate Programs (ASAP) is an ambitious and promising exception. Operated by the City University of New York (CUNY), which serves over half a million students annually and is the largest public university system in the country, ASAP provides a comprehensive array of services and supports over a three-year period to help more students graduate and to help them graduate sooner. The program aims to simultaneously address multiple barri­ers to student achievement over multiple semesters, and is one of the most aggressive efforts in the country to improve the success rates of low-income students. In 2007, CUNY, with the support and funding from the New York City Center for Economic Opportunity (CEO), launched ASAP at all six CUNY community colleges. ASAP requires students to attend college full time and provides them with a rich array of supports for three full years, including a tuition waiver that covers any gap between a student’s financial aid and tuition and fees, special seminars and block-scheduled classes, enhanced advising, career services, free MetroCards for use on public transportation, and free use of textbooks. In 2009, CUNY, in partnership with CEO and CEO’s evaluators, conducted an internal evaluation of ASAP and found very promising effects for participating students. At that point, CUNY decided to expand the program and commissioned MDRC to conduct an external study to test ASAP’s effects using a random assignment design, the gold standard methodology in program evaluation. MDRC’s study focuses on three CUNY community colleges: Borough of Manhattan, Kingsborough, and LaGuardia. For the study, ASAP targets low-income students who need one or two developmental courses to build their reading, writing, or math skills. The study compares ASAP with regular services and classes at the colleges. MDRC’s report provides results for the first two years of the three-year program. Key findings include effects on: •Semester-to-semester retention. After the first semester, ASAP consistently increased the likelihood that students would enroll in each subsequent semester by 8 to 10 percentage points. The effect on enrolling in shorter intercessions (winter or summer) was even larger.•Credits earned. ASAP increased the average number of credits earned over two years by 7.6 credits (37.9 for ASAP students vs. 30.4 for control students), a 25 percent increase that represents 13 percent of the college-level credits required to earn a degree.•Graduation. ASAP increased the proportion of students who earned an associate’s degree in two years by 5.7 percentage points (14.5 percent for ASAP students vs. 8.7 percent for the control group). It’s important to note that these students had to fulfill developmental education requirements before earning at least 60 college-level credits to graduate. In fact, data from the first cohort of students in the study shows that this effect grows substantially by the two-and-a-half-year mark: 33.3 percent of program group members had earned an associate’s degree, compared with 18.2 percent of control group members — for an impact of 15.1 percentage points. Based on results from their own internal study of early cohorts of students and the promis­ing early effects from the random assignment evaluation, CUNY committed to substantially expanding ASAP beginning in fall 2012. By fall 2014, CUNY aims to serve over 4,000 students at the six participating community colleges — three times more than were served in fall 2012.

Editors' Note Red Washburn and Brianne Waychoff This issue Solidão hits during a critical moment transnationally. It lands during a global pandemic, with calamitous events from Trump and Bolsonaro worldwide. However, as Arundhati Roy states, "The pandemic is a portal" (Roy 2021). This time has allowed us to reimagine life and solidarity in order to resuscitate them during social isolation. It is a clarion call to reorganize life to repair ubiquitous underemployment and unemployment, inadequate health care, inhumane incarceration, sexual harassment against women, anti-Black police violence, trans dehumanization, totalitarian regimes, environmental destruction, Indigenous genocide, and the defunding of Black, race, ethnic studies; women's, gender, and sexuality studies; and LGBTQ studies. Of particular alarm is the predicament facing Indigenous people in the Brazilian Amazon—the loss of life, culture, nature, and habitat—as a result of the climate crisis and corporate wealth. The possibilities of the portal include a recentering of marginality, for example, Black and Indigenous women's and trans people's lives and words. The gateway from one way of life to the next demands we move beyond thought to practice freedom, a revolution that begins with decolonizing our minds and curricula as well as a massive restructuring of social institutions that shifts priorities to people over profit. The guest editors of this issue, along with the writers and artists who contributed to it, address many of these topics in-depth, thereby expanding the scholarship robustly. We are grateful to the guest editors for doing this issue, the first issue to come out during our editorship. We want to thank WSQ, including the editorial board, the poetry, prose, and art editors, and editorial assistants. In particular, we want to extend a hearty thank-you the editorial assistants, Amy Iafrate, Alex Johnson, Joe Goodale, and Ivy Bryan, all of whom worked [End Page 12] tirelessly on communicating with the scholars, writers, and artists to make this issue happen. In addition, we want to extend a generous thank-you to Dána-Ain Davis, Director of the Center for the Study of Women in Society, and administrative staff Eileen Liang and Jennifer Bae for providing WSQ with internships in feminist publishing for graduate students in women's and gender studies at the City University of New York. Our partnership has significantly enriched the quality of the journal for our feminist communities across CUNY and beyond. We are greatly indebted to the Feminist Press for all its help with scheduling, copyediting, and distributing our issues, especially to Interim Executive Director Lauren Rosemary Hook and Assistant Editor Nick Whitney. We also wish to thank Associate Director of the Center for the Humanities Kendra Sullivan, as well as Jordan Lord and Sampson Starkweather for collaborating with us and building a new vision for the journal, including aiding with publicity, administrative matters, and translations for this issue. We acknowledge the support we have received from the National Women's Studies Association, namely President Kaye Wise Whitehead and Interim Executive Director Jen Ash, as well as the Community of Literary Magazines and Presses (CLMP). Lastly, we want to thank each other as general editors of WSQ for navigating a difficult editorial transition during austerity and doing so with feminist generosity. We are looking forward to celebrating the legacy of WSQ, its fiftieth anniversary hitting during our leadership, and creating a sustainable future for it at the City University of New York.
