This report summarizes accountability, productivity, and quality enhancements within the Illinois community college system, including highlights from reports prepared by the system's 49 colleges, systemwide analyses conducted by Illinois Community College Board (ICCB), and state-level accountability and productivity initiatives. Following an executive summary and brief introduction, the next major section presents college productivity reports for the following functions: instruction, academic and student support, overall academic function, administration, and public service. The next section presents college responses to a series of questions from the Illinois Board of Higher Education related to the use of benchmarks, cooperative arrangements, auxiliary enterprises, intercollegiate athletics, staffing analysis, low-enrollment programs, and cost analysis. Next, the report provides the results of seven studies conducted by the ICCB on administrative costs, student retention, minority achievement, remedial education, community college auxiliary enterprise funds, and transfer rates. The next section outlines state-level accountability and productivity initiatives including a review of state-level processes and procedures; goals for 1993-94 in the areas of accountability, articulation, teaching and learning, telecommunications, workforce preparation, and community college advocacy.
