New Daily Enrollment Report Presentation on March 2 Please join Kale Braden, Associate Vice President of Instruction and Enrollment Management, and ARC’s research team on Wednesday, March 2 at 1:00 pm for the virtual roll-out presentation of a year-over-year daily enrollment report just added to ARC’s Data-on-Demand (Precision Campus) system. The Zoom link is lrccd.zoom.us/j/96186456319.
As the first in a series of upcoming enrollment management oriented reports, and the first in Precision Campus to report current semester data, this report provides daily student enrollment trends for three “like” terms, three years apart. It can be run at the college, division, department, and course levels of detail, and can be filtered by modality, FT/PT faculty, credit type, and more. This new capability is the result of a collaboration between Kale Braden and ARC’s research team. Please join us to learn how this new reporting capability may benefit individual faculty, department chairs, deans, and others in their planning and decision-making activities. |

Speech is Now Communication |
|
ARC's Speech program is now Communication - same great classes, same great professors, just a new name! The new program name better reflects the diversity of classes offered by the program.

You may have noticed the difference in class titles in the Summer 2022 class schedule. For more information on the program, visit Communication Programs and Majors. |
