What’s in it
AI summary Community colleges will now share more information with the state about what their students plan to do after graduation. This includes data on whether students intend to earn a four-year degree or if they enroll in a university after finishing community college. The Department of Education will then summarize these details and give them to the state legislature every year.1

This bill adds information collected by community college surveys relating to students’ baccalaureate degree intentions, progress toward a baccalaureate degree, and enrollment in a university following graduation, to the data the board of directors of a community college must provide to the department of education through the department’s management information system. By operation of law, the department is directed to summarize and provide this information annually to the general assembly.
