FOREWORD

The Lyndon B. Johnson School of Public Affairs hasestablished interdisciplinary research on policy problems asthe core of its educational program. A major part of thisprogram is the policy research project, in the course ofwhich three faculty members, each from a differentprofession or discipline, and about fifteen graduate studentswith diverse backgrounds research a policy issue of concernto an agency of government. This "client onentation-brings the students face to face with administrators.legislators. and other officials active in the policy process.and demonstrates that research in a policy environmentdemands special talents. It also illuminates the difficultiesof using research findings to bring about change wherepolitical realities must be taken into account.

Post-Secondary Education Planning in Texas.Techniques for Poky Analyses is a report of one of theLBJ School's policy research projects conducted during1973-74. Other publications resulting from this

iii

post-secondary education projeLt, which was conducted finthe Coordinating Board. Texas College and UniversitySystem, include the Texas Atlas of higher Education andthe MAPPER Users Manual. These reports seek to describeanalytic techniques developed by project participants tomore effectively assess student demand supply patterns andtheir impact upon the polices and practices of stateagencies and education institutions

The intention of the LBJ School is both to develop men,.nd women with the capacity to perform effectively mpublic service and to produce research that will enlightenand inform those already engaged in the policy process. Theproject which resulted m these reports has helped toaccomplish the former. it Is our hope and expectation thatthe reports themselves will contribute to the latter.

PREFACE

This document is the third publication resulting fromthe Post Secondary Education Policy Research Projectconducted by the Lyndon B Johnson School of PublicAffairs. 1 he University of Texas at Austin. during theacademic year 1971-74. The purpose of the pioject is toassist state an d education institution officials in the

detelopment of improted methods and processes for moreeffecutely analyiing data and making decisions in theeducational environment faced with planning issues inTexas

Critically important in the completion of this projecthate been the untlaggine efforts of LBJ School faculty andstudent participants in the policy research project. The staffof the Coordinating Board. Texas College and UniversitySystem prmided intaluable assistance. Supply and demand'is,ues and data were discussed with administiatite and staffpersonnel from the Texas Education Agency . the TexasAdvisory Council for Technic1,1Nocational Education: theTina, Employ ment Commission, the Texas IndustrialCommission: the Office of Information Services. The Officeof the Goternor the Texas Association of ProprietarySchools: the Association of In depeodent Colleges and

SUMMARY

Post-secondary education decisionmakers in Texas mustbe able to effectively assess both current and proposedpolicies in the c9ntext of student and employer demand/supply patterns The policy research project has identifiedand developed several approaches for examining suchinformation. These approaches, together with recom-

mended applications and courses of action, are excerptedhere.

TEXAS ATLAS 01: IIIGIIER EDUCATION.11APPER USERS MA ,VIJA

These research techniques and documents enable educa-tion planners to identify changes and trends in institutionalenrollments and student service areas Decisions on facilityand program development can then he based upon theneeds of the population served (e.g., regional rather thanstatewide). Institutional "marketing' strategies can be

improved by fo,.using on appropriate geographic areas.program LonLentrations, and student groups. Recom-mended courses of action include

The Atlas should periodically be updated and ex-panded in its Loverage (e.g., to include proprietaryschools)The MAPPER system should he modified to producemaps sho\\ mg student flows by educational programand;or by student ty pe (ex.-. minority. under-

County .speLifiL sanables thought to he associated withinstitutional enrollment \ dilations by county (both totaiparticipation and rate of participation) are identified andanalyied In order to increase the utility of this analysis foreducation planners in Texas. efforts such as the followingare recommended.

Student-specific variables (e.g., sex, ethnic back-ground. educational attainment level(s) of parent(s).undergraduate/graduate status) should be included inthe regression analysis to improve its predictivecapability.

The Coordinating Board's Uniform Reporting Systemshould he the primary source of state student-specitliinformation, and should be expanded both in thescope of the questions and in the range of institu-tional iespondentsImproved techniques for obtaining information onstudents' educational preferences (institutional andgeographical. as well as programmatic) need to beimplemented, with the results incorporated into theanalysisMethods for updating and otherwise improvingcounty-based information should be sought (e.g

collecting information at the smallest feasible geo-graphic level).

STUDENT ALLOCATION MODEL

This approach seeks to estimate an institution's"drawing power rpgarding potential students throughcounty information on student demand (i e preference)for various types of post-secondary education institutions

Current information on student flows and on presentand planned institutional student capacities must beobtained and incorporated into the model to achievea significant level of predictability.

INSTITUTIONAL SERVICE AREA ANALYSIS

An application of the Atlas and MAPPER Users lianualtechniques to sub-state regions of Texas. the institutionalservice area analysis can further refine both regional

county-tonstitution student flows and the extent to whicha (regional) county's student population receives it post-

secondary education within the region An improvedunderstanding of institutional service areas is criticallyimportant for policy decisions related to such issues asprogram and facility development (e.g whether to provideadditional student residential space or commuter parkinglots). Recommendations are similar to those relating to theAtlas and Manual. with primary emphasis on integrating theinstitutional service area analysis with the project's otheranalytic approaches.

feasibility and desirability of new programs in thecontext of present and projected student andemployer demand should be assigned to a singleinstitutional office, with appropriate statewide co-ordination exercised by the staff of the CoordinatingBoard

The feasibility of using sub-state jurisdictions (e.g.,councils of government) as clearinghouses forsupply/demand information related to post-secondaryeducation program and facility development shouldbe more closely examined.Guidelines for the establishment and operation ofvocational education advisory committees should beieviewed

Additional student information concerning both pre-matriculation interests and follow-up/placement datais necessary for effective institutional program devel-opment and state-level coordination.

CHAPTER I

INTRODUCTION

Education beyond the high school level has become oneof the largest enterprises in the United States. The annualenrollment in the nation's approximately 3,000 public andprivate institutions of higher education exceeds nine millionstudents, while the estimated 7,000 post-secondary pro-prietary schools annually enroll several million additionalstudents.* The total income annually received by post,se,..ondary education institutions now exceeds $30 billion.(National Committee on the Financing of Post-SecondaryEducation 1973. 14, 16, 67, 431)**

The Texas profile is simjlarly impressive. Presentlyserving the academic and vocational post-secondary needsof the state are over 125 colleges, institutes, and universitycenters, plus several hundred proprietary schools. Fall 1973enrollments in Texas colleges and universities totaled452,000, placing the state third among all the states; earneddegrees conferred by these institutions in 1972 exceeded45.000 (HEW 1974: 69,94): Estimated annual completionsin Texas proprietary schools is approaching 20.000(Advisory Council 1974). State and federal funding appro-priated through the state's appropriations act for fiscal year1974 totalled 5618 million for the senior colleges anduniversities and 5106 million for Texas State TechnicalInstitute (TSTI) and the junior colleges (Advisory Council1974

The tremendous growth of education in the 1950s and1960s led most states in the nation to create and expandthe scope of their state boards and agencies responsible forpost-secondary education. The orderly and effective devel-

opment of post-secondary education has been a difficultobjective to achieve, however. Not only has the publicsector frequently developed in isolation from the privatesector, but also vocational programs -both public andprivate-have evolved apart from academic programs.Clearly needed are planning perspectives and techniquesthat are able to provide greater insight concerning theenvironment within which such coordination must occur.

RECENT TRENDS

Current social and economic trends make state-levelcoordination even more imperative. If current nationalpopulation trends persist, for example, it is unlikely thatpost-secondary education will remain a growth industry.The number of five-year-olds in the United States declined15 percent between 1960 and 1970. The nation's birth rateis at its lowest point in history, and it has not yet stabilized:the number of births dropped three percent between 1970and 1971-and nine percent between 1971 and 1972. TheBureau of the Census projects a substantial decline in thenumber of college-age youth in the 1980s, and furtherdeclines are likely after 1990 unless the live birth rateincreases in the near future (Glenny 1973 I. A recentprojection prepared for the Carnegie Commission (1973)also indicates a sharp decrease in the rate of college anduniversity enrollment growth in the 1970s. followed by anabsolute decline in enrollment in the following decade.

Similar population trends are likely in Texas. Thepercentage increase in the state's population between 1960and 1970 was less than the 1950.1960 percentage increase;in addition, there were 108,200 fewer births in Texas in1960-1970 than in the preceding decade (Bradshaw andPoston 1971: 105. A recent study by The University ofTexas Population Research Center (Poston et a/. 19731 alsosuggests that the number of college -age youth will begin todecline in all areas of the state in the late 1970s

In recent years there has also been a growing recognitionthat a college degree is not the only route to success in oursociety and that vocational education plays a very signifi-cant role Consequently, the rate of enrollment increase hasbeen much greater in proprietary and industrial schoolsthan in traditional higher education institutions This trend

is likely to continue. particularly if federal student aidbecomes available in greater amounts for proprietary schoolenrollees. In addition. 85 percent of the increase in recentyears in the number of first-time students in cu lei,,ateinstitutions occurred in community colleges; further im-pacting the operation of senior colleges and universities(Glennv 1973)

Program and appropriations trends in Texas bear out thisincreased interest in post-secondary vocational education.For instance. the number of industrial occupation programshas increased from 35 to 357 since 1966. while technicaloccupation programs have jumped from 39 to 133. As stateappropriations for junior colleges and TSTI increased fromS3$ million to 5117 million between fiscal years 1969 and1974. the amount allocated to occupational (rather thanacademic) programs increased from 30 percent to morethan 45 percent. Enrollments in public post-secondaryoccupational programs in Texas have increased from 6,000in 1962.63 to almost 80.000 in 1973.74; further increases

are also likely, since secondary vocational education enroll-

ments have increased from 167,000 to 412,000 over the

same period (Advisory Council 1974)

1202 COMMISSIONS

Recognizing the iinplications of these (mid other)emerging trends. post-secondary education organizationsand institutions (including the Education Commission ofthe States and the State Higher Education ExecutiveOfficers Association) pressed Congress prior to the enact-ment of the 1972 Education Amendments (Public Law

92-318) to assist the states in developing coordinatedpost-secondary education delivery systems. Arguments

cited in support of such action included:

the current number and variety of public and privateinstitutions in each state.the apparent imbalance between manpower needs..student interests. and educational programs;the scarcity of resources for post-secondary educa-

tion.the increased recognition of the desirability of insti-tutional and programmatic complementation, ratherthan duplication and competition:andthe emergence of new or improved management andplanning techniques for post-secondary educationinstitutions and systems. (U.S. House of Representa-tives 1971. 804-811)

Responding to these expressed needs. Congress included

in the 1972 Education Amendments an authorization(Section 12021 for financial and technical assistance tostates desiring to create new agencies or designate existing

agencies as State Post-Secondary Education Commissions

("1202 Commissions") (20 U.S.C. I142a). These 1202Comtniss ons were to he "broadly and equitably representa-t;ye of the general public and of public and privatenonprofit and proprietary in.l.:ations of post-secondaryeducation in the state," including junior colleges. areavocational schools.. technical institutes, and four-year col-leges and universities. The functions of each Commissionwere to include the initiation of comprehensive inventories

and studies of all public and private post-secondaryeducation resources in the state.. as well as the development

of plans related to vocational education.In the latter half of 1972 and early 1973. the United

States Office of Education (USOE) actively sought todevelop regulations for the appointment. operation. andfunding of the 1202 Commissions During this period,Texas was one of 13 states to respond; with GovernorPreston Smith designating the Coordinating Board. TexasCollege and University System as the state's 1202 Commis-sion. Upon assuming office in January 1973, GovernorDolph Briscoe affirmed this designation. On March 7:1973.however, the U.S. Commissioner of Education announcedthat 1202 Commissions were unnecessary in view of theprogram cuts included in President Nixon's proposed fiscalyear 1974 budget and set aside plans for their implementa-

tion.Following a year of inaction.. USOE in March 1974

asked each state whether or not it wanted to establish a1202 Commission. This action was at least partially sparkedby Congressional language in the fiscal year 1974 educationappropriations bill which directed that a substantial portionof a 53 million allocation for state education commissionsshould be made available to the 1202 Commissions forplanning purposes (The Chronicle of Higher Education1974).

In April 1974 Governor Dolph Briscoe of Texas re-sponded affirmatively to USOE. Rather than designating anexisting board as the Texas 1202 Commission. however. hecreated the I 7-member Governor's Advisory Committee onPost-Secondary Education Planning to fulfill the Com-mission's responsibilities. These responsibilities include areview of the state's present post-secondary educationalplanning process. particularly with respect to the qualityand availability of planning data and the suitability ofpresent administrative/governance structures.

Whether or not the establishment of the Governor'sAdvisory Committee is viewed a permanent resolution ofthe 1202 Commission issues is unclear, as is the level ofeffectiveness it will b. able to achieve in its planning andcoordination efforts it is y likely,. however. that theCoordinating Board and it, .staff will assume a major role in

future 1202 Co ion related planning activities The

analyses and matellt; described herein should provideassistance in these efforts.

CHAPTER II

POST-SECONDARY EDUCATION IN TEXAS:THE ORGANIZATIONAL ENVIRONMENT

The environment within which post-secondary educationinstitutions and policies in Texas function is composed ofstate education agencies. advisory boards, interagencycommittees. voluntary associations of schools, and legisla-tive committees. Apart from the Governor's Office and theTexas State Legislature, the major components of thisenvironment are the State Board of Education and itsadministrative staff, the Texas Education Agency; and theCoordinating Board, Texas College and University Systemand its staff. These and selected other organizations arebriefly discussed in this chapter to provide a framework forthe analyses in subsequent chapters; further details on theseagencies, boards. and related bodies are included in anearlier project report I LBJ School 1974a).

STATE BOARD OF EDUCATION:TEXAS EDUCATION AGENCY (TEA)

In 1949, as a result of the Gilmer-Atkin Act: a majorreorganization occurred in the management of publiceducation in Texas In place of the elected State Superin-tendent of Public Instruction and the appointed StateBoard of Education, the 51st Texas Legislature establisheda central education agency composeu of an elected StateBoard of Education. which operates as the State Board ofVocational Education when considering vocational-

technical matters, a Board-appointed Commissioner ofEdwation, and a professional. technical, and clerical staffknown as the Texas Education Agency (LEO School 1972).Members of the Board, one elected from each of the state's24 Congressional districts for a six-year term, conveneregularly to review the state's educational needs. to adoptplans to meet those needs, and to evaluate educationprograms under its direction.

TEA, the admmistiato.e unit of the State Board, hasconsisted of four departments Occupational Education andTechnology. Administration, Teacher Education and In-structional Services, aid Special Education and SpecialSchools (A reorganization is currently being unplemented.)Of these four, the first has been most significantly involvedin post-secondary education issues and activities in Texas

Specifically charged wit:. administering vocational-

technical programs and certifying fexas proprietary

schools, the Department of Occupational Education andTechnology consists of five operating divisions. The Divi-sion of Adult and Continuing Education provides consulta-tive services to local agencies in the development andcoordination of adult education, civil defense, and man-power training programs, approving program applicationsand developing evaluation procedures. The Division ofOccupational Research and Development advises, assists;monitors, and coordinates research projects in occupationaleducation developed and implemented by school districts,post-secondary institutions, and others. The Division ofPublic School Occupational Programs is primarily con-cerned with the development and accreditation of voca-tional-technical programs in public high schools. TheDivision of Post-secondary Occupational Education andTechnology provides post-secondary institutions withtechnical assistance for the development, maintenance, andfinancing of vocational-technical programs. The functionsof the Division of Proprietary Schools and VeteransEducation include advising, certifying, and regulating pro-prietary schools, as well as approving programs and teacherqualifications for the training of veterans.

Responsibilities delegated to TEA in the area of post-secondary education have necessitated its involvement invocational-technical program development, financial

management, and proprietary school certification. Withrespect to program development, TEA reviews proposedvocational programs submitted by community colleges forapproval prior to receipt of state or federal support andevaluates existing vocational-technical programs, services,and activities. Financial management responsibilities ofTEA include the verification of programs and programfunding requests in the budget submissions of the state'scommunity colleges.

An expanding area of post-secondary education respon-sibility within TEA in the past three years has been the'rtification and regulation of proprietary school% and their

programs under the Texas Proprietary School Act of 1971(Texas Education Code 1972 Chapter 32) This actexpressly prohibits any non-exempted proprietary schoolfrom advertising, soliciting for, or conducting any course ifinstruction in Texas without first obtaining a certificate ofapproval from TEA stating that it provides quality training

COORDINATING BOARD

In 1955 Texas statutorily recognized the need for ac.:ntral coordinating institution in the field of highereducation by creating the Texas Commission on Higher

ducation Unfortunately, the Commission's success wasiinnted by a lack of money and its inability to effectivelyco, ,rdinat e program development and facilities construc-tion State respnses to these difficulties culminated in thepassage ot the Higher Education Coordinating Act of 1965(House Bill I. texas State Legislature). winch establishedthe Coordinating Board.

The Orgaimational Environment

Board endeavors to carry out its statutory mandate toprovide "leadership and coordination tot the Texas Iteducation system" (Texas Education Code 1972 Section61.002). With the exception of public community collegeprograms (subject to the approval it the State Board forVocational Education 1 and community college construction(financed by local property taxes). the Coordinating Boardis authorized to coordinate the activities of the state'spublic colleges and universities. It is also instr.a.ted tocooperate with the independent institutions of higher

education. coordinating programs with them %culla' consti-tutional and statutory limits and considering their degreeand certificate programs prior to authorizing new collegiateprograms in public institutions.

Statewide planning and coordiration Is pursued by theCoordinating Board and its staff in four basic areasinstitutional development, program development, financialmanagement,. and facilities planning. In matters of postsecondary institutional development, the Board roust advise

the legislature as to the state's need for a new publicfour-year institution before such an institution may heauthorized. The creation of a public community college.designed to provide general collegiate education. technicaltraining. and compensatory and continuing education. isnot subject to this statutory requirement. Because theCoordinating Board believes all potential students in thestate should be within reasonable distance of such a college,it has divided the state into 53 geographic regions Theseregions represent groupings of potential community collegestudents and areas within which at least one communitycollege is feasible within the next decade or two (Coordi-nating Board I 9684. These regions do not represent taxingjurisdictions: nor do they restrict the attendance ofstudents at colleges outside the region in which they reside.

OCHER INSTITUTIONS AND ASSOCIATIONS

A variety of other voluntary associations. advisorybodies. state agencies. and institutions also help shape thepostsecondary education environment in Texas.

Idrisory Council for Technical-VocationalEducation in Texas

As a result of a report submitted in 1967 by the firsttederal Advisory Council on Vocational Education, theVo,:ational Education Amendments of 1968 (Public Law90-570) mandated that state advisory councils on voca-tional and technical education be created. Although theleas State Board of Education had appointed a statevocational education advisory council in 1964, the 61stTexas State Legislature in 1969 created (in Senate Bill 261)the Advisory Council for Technical-Vocational Education(Texas Education Code 1972. Chapter 31). .

The purpose of the Texas Advisory Council for

Technical-Vocational Education is to establish "a climateconducive to the development of technical, vocational. andmanpower training in educational institutions in the Stateof Texas to meet the needs of industrial and economicdevelopment of the state." It is to plan. recommend: ande%aluate "educational programs in the vocational-technical,adult eduLation. and manpower training areas at the statckvel m the public secondary and post-secondary educa-tional institutions and other institutions" (Texas EducationCode 1972 Section 31.31).

One responsibility of the Advisory Council is to partici-pate. together with the Coordinating Board and the StateBoard for Vocational Education. on the Joint Committee.Other responsibilities include providing up-to-date data onstate employment oppertunities and carrying out studiesand forums on vocational education initiated by the

-dvisory Council itself. the State Board for VocationalEdu,ation, the governor. the state legislature, the Legisla-me Budget Board, and other state agencies.

The Advisory Council consists of 21 citizens recom-mended b} the governor. appointed (for overlappingsix-} ear terms) by the State Board of Education, and,ontirined bx the Texas Senate. The members must beselected in accord with 17 specific membership categories.sith approximately one-third educators, one-third corpora-tion exe,.titmes. and one-third representatives of variousspecial groups

It is important to emphasize the advisory nature of theTexas .V.isisory Council for Technical-Vocational Educa-tion It participates neither in the allocation of funds nor inthe administration of programs The Advisory Council

7

The Organizational Environment

believes that such an approach would compromise itsobjective and independent evaluations. its plans. and itsrecommendations. Moreover.. the State Board for Voca-tional Education has the final authority to accept or rejectany recommendation of the Advisory Council (TexasEducation Code 1972: Section 31.39).

Association of Independent Collegesand Universities of Texas

The Association of Independent Colleges and Univer-sities of Texas (ICUT) represents the private colleges anduniversities of Texas before state agencies. the Governor'sOffice, and the State Legislature. Although ICUT has noformal representation on the Coordinating Board, the latterdoes consider the activities of ICUT member institutions inits coordination and planning.

In 1967. for instance, the Coordinating Board sponsoredan ICUT study of Texas independent colleges and univer-sities which included among its recommendations that theexisting physical facilities and programs of independentschools should be recognized in Coordinating Board plan-ning as a means of fulfilling state needs. More recently, theCoordinating Board recommended and the Texas StateLegislature passed a state tuition equalization program topartially offset the economic incentives for Texas citizensto attend public colleges and universities.

Texas Association of Proprietary Schools (TAPS):Proprietary School Advisory Commission

Other than through the certification process involvingnon-exempted proprietary schools in Texas and the Divi-sion of Proprietary Schools and Veterans Education. TexasEducation Agency. interaction between the state post-secondary education agencies and the proprietary schoolsector occurs primarily through the Texas Association ofProprietary Schools (TAPS) and the Proprietary SchoolAdvisory Commission.

TAPS, formed in 1970 by the merger of the UnitedBusiness Schools Association and the Texas Association ofTrade and Technical Schools. represents the interests of itsmember schools to state agencies. the State Legislature. andthe Governor's Office. Proprietary schools in Texas alsomaintain limited contact through TAPS with the NationalAssociation of Independent Colleges and Schools and theNational Association of Trade and Technical Schools.

The Proprietary School Advisory Commission. createdby the 1971 Texas Proprietary School Act. consists of ninemembers appointed by the State Board of Education tooverlapping six-year terms. Four members shall he managersor executive officers of proprietary schools covered by this1971 act, three shall he public school officials, and twoshall be distinguished and informed citizens of Texas.

TEC also annuallyproides information to TEA for the latter's use in

submitting required federal data relating to vocationaleducation

Texas Industrial Commission (TIC)

The Texas Industrial Cotnmission (TIC) is responsiblefor planning. organizing. and operating a program forattracting and locating new industries in Texas and forpromoting the expansion of existing industries in the state.TIC cooperates with TEA in identifying training needs of anew or expanding industry. in locating resources that maybe used to provide training, in translating the industry'straining needs into programs for training Institutions. inestablishing training programs, and in assuring that thetraining programs are properly administered.

TIC has recently worked closely with both TEA andTEC to develop programs designed to help meet the

8

immediate manpower needs of industries considering plantlocation in Texas. The agencies have also worked togetherto produce state Industrial Start-up Training programs usingthe occupational training facilities and capabilities of Texas'junior colleges, the four campuses of Texas State TechnicalInstitute, and many of the state's independent schooldistricts (TIC 1973).

Texas State Technical Institute ITSTI)

As Texas' only state-level public post-secondary educa-tion institution providing solely technical training, theTexas State Technical Institute (TSTI) occupies a uniqueposition in the state. TSTI operates as a separate system,independent of the state's community college system.Whereas community colleges in Texas offer vocational-technical programs in conjunction with their regular

academic curriculum, all of the TSTI programs are gearedtoward training students for immediate employment, ratherthan for broad education in the traditional academic sense.

Nine regents, appointed by the governor, serve as thegoverning board of TSTI. The main campus is located atWaco, with other branches (all authorized by the TexasState Legislature) at Amarillo, Harlingen, and Sweetwater.

As an independent, state-supported post-secondary

education institution, TSTI is funded primarily throughdirect appropriations by the State Legislature. However,since vocational and technical education programs offeredby TSTI are subject to TEA approval, TEA is able topartially affect the funding, programs, and activities ofTSTI.

CHAPTER III

STATEWIDE POST-SECONDARY EDUCATION PLANNING:DATA PRESENTATION AND ANALYSIS TECHNIQUES

As described in Chapter I, post-secondary educationprograms, appropriations, and enrollments in Texas haveexhibited dramatic changes within the past decade. Particu-larly important have been enrollment trends, since theyform the primary basis for many program development andfinancing changes. Whereas only a few years ago collegesand universities were faced with rapidly expanding studentpopulations, enrollments in many of these institutions havenow stopped growing or may soon do so. In contrast to thiscollegiate trend, however, have been the increasing enroll-ments in the state's post-secondary vocational-technicalclasses.

Enrollment changes such as these, as well as currentsocial and economic trends, have complicated the highereducation -and, more generally, the post-secondary educa-tionplanning process in the state. Given changing educa-tional demands, old planning policies cannot he followedrigidly. Instead, education decisionmakers must evaluateshifts in enrollment (i.e., student demand) patterns andtheir possible causes to assess the changing educationalrequirements of the state and the need to establish newpolicies to meet those requirements. Success is not depen-dent upon the formation of new agencies, committees, ororganizational arrangements. Rather, the effectiveness ofthe new policies will greatly depend upon the quality andutility of the data and the analytic techniques used todescribe and explain the state's higher education enrollmentpatterns.

As part of its study, the Lyndon B. Johnson School ofPublic Affairs Policy Research Project on Post-SecondaryEducation Planning in Texas has developed a variety ofapproaches for examining and analyzing informationrelated to student demand for higher education in Texas.Research results related to the use of one such techniqueare included in two separate publications: the Texas Atlasof Higher Education (LBJ School I 974b), which graph-ically depicts enrollments in Texas' public and privateinstitutions of higher education, by county of studentorigin, for the years 1968 and 1972; and an accompanyingtechnical document, MAPPER Users Manual (LBJ School1974c), which provides documentation for the Atlas andsuggests useful modifications in the computer-generatedmapping techniques. Other analytic techniques that have

9

. 18

been developed and applied by project participants are alinear regression analysis that examines variations in theenrollment of Texas students in Texas higher educationinstitutions in an effort to explain county enrollmentdifferences using county characteristics, and a studentallocation model that seeks to predict likely future studentflows in Texas on the basis of existing higher educationinstitutions and programs.

TEXAS ATLAS OF HIGHER EDUCATION

The Texas Atlas of Higher Education presents, through aset of more than 200 maps, the 1968 and 1972 enrollmentpatterns for the state's public and private senior and juniorcolleges, public technical institutes, and public and privatemedical, dental, nursing, and allied health schools. Themajority of institution's-litluded in the Atlas are those iden-tified in "Institutions of Higher Education in Texas, 1972-73" (Coordinating Board 1973b).

The Atlas does not contain student enrollment informa-tion for the proprietary vocational-technical schools inTexas for two reasons. first, the great number of theseinstitutions precluded their treatment in the available timeand space (e.g., the Texas Education Agency currentlycertifies about 200 such schools); and, second, enrollmentdata are frequently unavailable for these private schools.

The enrollment pattern maps in the Atlas arecomputer-generated, using a basic program developed bythe Bureau of Business Research, The University of Texasat Austin, and modified by LBJ School of Public Affairsproject participants. The MAPPER Users Manual providesadditional details on the production of these maps.

Three kinds of information are provided in theseenrollment pattern maps. Taken together, the 1968 and1972 maps for a given institution show:

changes in the school's enrollment of Texas residentsover this four-year period;the school's service area (i.e., the geographic areas ofthe state from which its students come); andshifts occurring in the service area over this timeperiod.

This information can be of central importance in deter-

Page 19: DOCUMENT RESUME 576 - ERICDOCUMENT RESUME ED 107 188 HE 00 576 ... the Austin-San Antonio region of Texas is provided in chapter 4. ... David West, B.A. (Political Science), Austin

pee,rseceinclary

mining, for example. the need for expanding an institutionor ,tearing a 11,'A one in the primary service area of anexisting institution.

Organcation of the .1 tlas

The Atlas is divided into seven sections corresponding tothe categories used by the Coordinating Board; Texas

ollege and University System to classify the state's highereducation institutions. The sections are titled ( I) PublicSenioi Colleges and Universities: (2) Independent SeniorColleges and Universities. (3) Public Community Colleges:(4) Independent Junior Colleges. (5) Public Medical,Dental. Nursing, and Allied Health Schools: (6) independent Nledkal. Dental, Nursing, and Allied Health Schools,and 17) Public Technical Institutes

Each of the seven sections begins with a map showingthe location of the institutions within that group; plus alisting of the city and county within which each is located.The remainder, and major part. of each section is comprisedof the 1968 and 1972 enrollment pattern maps preparedfor each school included therein

Derelopinent of the Atlas

It is important that the reader be aware of tour decisionsinvolved in the preparation of the Atlas. together with theirunderly mg rationales:

1 It was decided that the enrollment statistics in theItlas should indicate only the number of Texas residentsattending (as undergraduates or graduates, in the fall term)the state's various higher education institutions.

This decision was obvious, given the focus of the Atlason Texas. but the need for a clear understanding of thelimitations of the Atlas necessitates its mention

2 It was decided that the Atlas should illustrate 1968and 1972 enrollment patterns for the institutions includediii its contents

Three reasons underlay this decision First, time and,pae ,,onstraints made it impractical to prepare more thannso enrollment pattern maps for each institution. Second.the desire to give the Atlas as much current applicability aspossible made it necessary to base one of these two mapson the latest enrollment data available at the start of thisprotet_ , namely . 1972 data. Finally, the idea that the Atlasshould show enrollment trends and changes in service areassuggested that the earlier period precede the first by four tosix years The 1968 period was selected because of therelative completeness of enrollment information for thatyear.

3 It was decided that where inclusion of an institutionintroduces a special difficulty (e.g. a change from atvv o-y ear to a tour-year college) a footnote should providean explanation of the specific situation.

10

Central to this decision was the desire to increase theusefulness of the Atlas by making it comprehensive andeasily understood.

4. It was decided that the legend (or key) describing apair of enrollment pattern maps should be developedseparately fer each institution.

This decision was necessitated by the extreme variationbetween schools in total enrollments and county atten-dance concentrations. After much experimentation itbecame apparent that a "standardized" legend. or sets oflegends. for all maps would not adequately describe thewidely divergent enrollment patterns of the institutions inthe Atlas. In addition; these variations made it impracticalto develop enrollment map legends through the generalapplication of a standardized statistical method.

Uses of the Atlas

The Texas Atlas of Higher Education is envisioned as adescriptive publication that should be invaluable as areference and planning document for representatives ofhigher education institutions and state agencies Much dataare summarized in easily understood form: e g.. the readercan vividly see shifts that have recently occurred in aninstitution's service area and in the service areas of thevarious groups of colleges and universities included in theAtlas (Caution should be used in attempting to compareservice areas of different institutions, however, because ofthe varying legends for the maps and the significantdifferences in total enrollments among schools.)

The Atlas maps provide an indication of the role eachinstitution is assuming in the Texas higher education"system." The extent to which an institutiodhas a local,regional. or state focus can be observed, as well as shifts inits scope. Higher education institution administrators cancompare their perceptions of their institutions' service areaswith those illustrated in the Atlas. This would permitinstitutional advertising and student recruitment efforts tobe focused on geographic' areas that deserve greater atten-tion, resulting in a more carefully planned marketingstrategy.

The rapidly changing focus of higher education in Texasmakes it inevitable that the usefulness of the specific datain this edition of the Texas Atlas of Higher Education is

transitory However, time should not diminish the impor-tance of this type of information in planning for highereducation in the state, nor the importance of the techn-iques used in the production of the Atlas

MAPPER USERS MANUAL

A technical publication accompanying the Texas Ate..of Higher Education is the MAPPER Users Manual (LBJSchool 1974c). which describes the computer system

19

Page 20: DOCUMENT RESUME 576 - ERICDOCUMENT RESUME ED 107 188 HE 00 576 ... the Austin-San Antonio region of Texas is provided in chapter 4. ... David West, B.A. (Political Science), Austin

MAPPER and provides documentation for the systemmodifications used in the production of the Atlas Thecapability of the MAPPER system to display computer-based geographic data foi policy planning is demonstratedin the Atlas, and the Manual has been produced to sharethis technique with other education planners in Texas.

It is not uncommon for public agencies to collectconsiderable data concerning their areas of responsibility.Although the data may be stored in readily accessiblecomputer tiles, their usefulness for planning and decision-making may be minimal unless presented in a manner thatwill assist planners in understanding the problems at hand.For example, identification of the enrollment patterns(both spatial and longitudinal) of post-secondary educationinstitutions are important in the state's education planningprocess. These patterns are frequently difficult to identifythrough examination of the raw data on students' countiesof origin; they are more easily observed, however, when thedata are presented in the form of geographic maps shadedaccording to enrollment concentrations by county.

Maps displaYang student flow information or other dataof int -t to education planners can be produced quicklythrough MAPPER. Developed by the Bureau of BusinessResearch of The University of Texas at Austin, theMAPPER system consists of two computer programs,MAPDAT3 and MAPPER. The former is a preprocessorprogram that reads county data from cards and constructs adata tile for display. The MAPPER program uses theMAPDAT3 file to generate a choropleth map of countyoutlines on the CALCOMP plotter for the entire state ofTexas for any smaller region of contiguous counties).County data are displayed on the map through the use ofdifferent shading patterns, each of which is associated witha distinct range of data.

A modified MAPPER system (Student Flow Version),the basis for the Atlas maps, has been developed by the LBJSchool to plot student flows by institution. Modificationsinclude the design of MAPDAT4 and MAPDAT5. Theformer is a program designed specifically to read from cardsstudent enrollment data by county of origin (i.e., residence)for each Texas institution of higher education. It creates atape tile that in turn is used as input by MAPDAT5, astrident flow version of MAPDAT3. The student flowversion of MAPPER. called MAPPER2, has been desigrAto then produce a pair of Texas state maps showing thenumber of students from each Texas county attending eachTexas institution of higher education for two selectedacademic years. As evidenced by the Atlas, the titles andlegend are located on the map proper to produce a finishedexhibit ready for direct inclusion in a publication.

The Texas Atlas of Higher Education has value in and of

Data Presentation and Analysis Techniques

Itself, e.g., as a reference document and as a guide to stateand institutional planning (including student recruitment)decisions. So, also, does the modified MAPPER systemdescribed in the MAPPER Users Manual, for it permitsperiodic updates of the Atlas on the basis of more recentenrollment data.

Potentially more important, however, are other applica-tions of the modified MAPPER system (Student FlowVersion) that are feasible and require little additional work.The Atlas and this modified version of the MAPPER systemare based upon (total) student enrollment data by countyof origin by institution. Similar descriptive analyses are alsopossible for any county based student enrollment datacollected by the institutions. For instance, if institutionalenrollment data were collected by educational program,maps could be produced to illustrate student flows byprogram within an institution.

Data availability is the primary stumbling block. Mapscould be developed (and map-based analyses performed)which would show an institution's drawing power acrossTexas in any one of a number of student categories (e.g.,seniors, graduate students, male students, Mexican-American students, transfer students, scholarship students).What is necessary, however, is student enrollment data; byinstitution and county of (student) origin, for the desiredstudent categories. Recent developments with regard to theCoordinating Board's Uniform Reporting System (URS) areencouraging, in that additional student data should now beavailable annually on an institutional basis.

The Manual techniques can also be applied (and ex-tended) at the sub-state level to any set of contiguous Texascounties (e.g., to any or all of the 24 state planningregions). For instance, a computer program has beendeveloped that, for each institution and any county in aselected region of Texa , gives annual data on:

the number of students in the institution from thedesignated county;the percentage of the regional portion of students inthis institution coming flo-n the designated county;andthe percentage of all Texas students attending theinstitution coming from the designated county.

The application of such (regional) in,titunonal servi,e areaanalyses is described in Chapter :V-

A diff-rent type of map-b ,.trd lltalysts is possible, foreither the entire state or a regit Jf the state, with regardto any student category to which the above modifiedMAPPER system (as extended) applies. Rather than use theinstitution as the primary unit of representation, it is

possible to use the county. That is, for each county inTexas the flow of students from that county to the variousinstitutions of higher education within the state can bepictorially represented.

would penult the production of student flow maps (similarto those in the Atlas) that would provide the afore-mentioned types of information. The policy research

project participants felt, however. that further map produc-tion could best be done by the staffs of the CoordinatingBoaid or other state agencies on the basis of their perceivedpost-secondary education planning needs in Texas and theay adability of usable data. Thus the Atlas and Manual notonly provide an efficient procedure for displaying collected,but too often neglected, student enrollment data, but alsoshould prove to be an incentive for improving planning anddata collection policies among education decisionmakers inTexas

STATEWIDE REGRESSION ANALYSIS

The regression analysis component of the project sought

to explain the variations in the enrollment of Texasresidents in higher education institutions across the state.county by county,, and to provide a basis for predictingchanges in these county enrollments by monitoring selectedindependent variables. Student demand analyses that in-clude the entire post-secondary education sector are neededas well. regrettably, however, the appropriate student dataare currently unavailable from the non-collegiate sector

De phrase "regression analysis:" when used in a

statistical sense, refers to the methods by which estimatesof one variable (called the dependent variable) are madefrom information about the values of one or more othervariables (called the independent variables). and to themeasurement of errors associated with such estimation. The

phrase "correlation analysis" refers to methods formeasuring the strength. or degree; of the association (or,correlation) among these variables, in this study. suchmethods are also subsumed under "regression analysis. "*

Two dependent variables were considered in the regres-sion analysis in this study. The first (D1) was the number oftexas iesidents attending an institution of higher educationin Texas in the fall of 1970, by county of studentresidence. This information was provided by the staff of theCoordinating Board, Texas College and University Systemon the basis of its Educational Data Center reporting form.Included were student enrollments in any course at leastone term in length in an undergraduate, graduate, orprofessional program Data on the Texas State TechnicalInstitute and private colleges and universities were onlypartially available.

The second dependent variable (D2) examined in the

Company. 1972) or Morris Hamburg. Statistical -Malt xis forDeuston Waking INea York Harcourt, 13race and World, Inc ,1970)

project was the "college-going rate." by county of studentresidence This refers to a county's extent of participationin Texas higher education relative to its total college-agepopulation. It is calculated, for each county in the state, bydividing the number of county residents attending Texashigher education institutions (DI ) by the county's popula-tion in 1970 between the ages of 18 and 24_ This age groupwas selected primarily because it was used by the Coor-dinating Board staff in 1%8 in calculating "college-goingrates" of Texas counties, even though most states onlyinclude 18 to 2I-year-olds in the college-age category(Coordinating Board, 1968b). This expanded grouping isalso more likely to include potential graduate and profes-sional students, as well as older-than-average students in theundergraduate programs.

Characteristics of the (Texas) counties of student originwere used as the independent variables. due to the lack ofhistorical information available on individual students orgroups of students enrolled in Texas colleges and uni-versities. These county-based data were obtained primarilyfrom Bureau of the Census (1973: Chapters B and C)information and Texas Public School Finance .4 Majorityof Exceptions (Texas Research League I 972 ) In formationon individual institutions was obtained from the Coor-dinating Board staff and., in the case of some privatecolleges and universities. from the institutions themselves.

It was hoped that variations in each of the two

dependent variables could be largely explained by anappropriate linear combination of independent variables.The 19 independent variables included in this analysis wereselected on the basis of anticipated relationships with thedependent variables and the availability of data in a usableform. The selected variables. each of which had a value foreach Texas county. were.

percentage of the county population that is betweenthe ages of 25 and 34;percentage of the county population that is blaLK,percentage of the county population that has aSpanish surname,percentage of the county population that is urban,percentage of the county population with an annualincome below the 1969 Social Security Administra-tion poverty level (see Appendix A):percentage of the county civilian labor force that isunemployed;median income of county residents;mean income of county residents;per capita income of county residents;median education school years completed) ofmales in the county;median education of females in the county;amount of total current operating costs per averagedad} attender in the public schools (grades K-12) inthe county; andtotal county population.

Among the county-based independent variable candi-dates considered and then rejected were: county populationchange between 1960 and 1970; county fertility rate;number of county residents enrolled in grades 9.12;percentage of high school graduates among county residents25 and over; median earnings of county residents inselected occupations:and number of county residents livingin military base housing.

For consistency, 1970 dependent variable data wereused with the independent variable data from the 1970Census. To have used the fall 1973 data from theCoordinating Board's Uniform Reporting System (URS)would also have been impossible; since the URS responseswere incomplete when the regression analysis was initiated

The use of these data and variables suggest the need forcare in analyzing the results. For instance, adult andcontinuing education enrollees were not distinguishableCrum students in other categories; part-time students weregrouped with full-time. enrollments in technical programsand academic programs in the two-year institutions couldnot he separated: and the stated county of residence (i.e.,origin) of a student could differ from the county ofresidence prior to attendance at the institution. Availabilityof data and the desire for consistency necessitated their usehowever Suggestions for improving the analysis are dis-cussed below.

The computer program used for the regression analysiswas selected from the Statistical Package for the SocialSciences (SPSS) (Nie, Bent, and Hull 1970).

In analyzing the relationships among the county-basedindependent and dependent variables listed above, correla-tions between each independent variable and each depen-

Data Presentation and Analysis Techniques

dent variable were first examined. Using the characteriza-tion that any two variables having a correlation coefficientbetween -.20 and +.20 are "not significantly correlated,"Table III-1 summarizes these results. Table 111-2 contains acomplete listing of correlation coefficients between eachindependent variable and each dependent variable.

The independent vanable most positively correlated withthe first dependent variable (D1) was "total countypopulation," having a correlation coefficient of 0.994. Alsoexhibiting significant positive correlation with variable DIwere "mean income of county residents" (0.4C3) and"amount of total current operating costs per average dailyattender in the public schools (grades K-I2) in the county"(0.453). The only independent vanable having a significantnegative correlation with DI was "percentage of the countypopulation with an annual income below the 1969 SocialSecurity Administration poverty level" (-0.217).

The second dependent variable (D2), on the other hand,exhibited significant negative correlations with seven inde-pendent variables and significant positive correlations withonly three (as compared with one and nine, respectively, inthe case of D1). The greatest negative correlation wasbetween D2 and "percentage of the county population thatis between the ages of 18 and 24" (-0.460), with the nextgreatest being "percentage of the county civilian labor forcethat is unemployed" (-0.393). Such correlations were notsurpnsing. For instance, one might expect that a larger totalcounty population between the ages of 18 and 24 would heassociated with a lesser "county participation rate" and,Indeed, this was the case.

It is interesting to note (Tables Ill -1 and 111-2) whichindependent variables were significantly correlated withboth of the two dependent variables, Only "per capitaincome of county residents" and "median education ofmales in the county" were (significantly) positively cor-related with both DI and D2, while only "percentage of thecounty population with an annual income below the 1969Social Security Administration poverty level" was (signifi-cantly) negatively correlated with both DI and D2. Thesecorrelation results would indicate that these three indepen-dent variables are important ones to include in any analysisof the variation in enrollments of Texas higher educationinstitutions.

The independent variables significantly correlated withneither of the dependent variables were "number of juniorcolleges within a 50-mile commuting radius of the county,""distance from the county to the nearest public seniorcollege," "distance from the county to the nearest publicjunior college," and "distance from the county to thenearest private junior or senior college." It appears,therefore, that factors other than distance to highereducation institutions influence student attendance pat-terns, by county. However, the difference between the

Conclusions and Recommendations

When the regression analysis in this project was begun,the decisu,n was made to use county characteristics as theindependent sanables. These data were available and wereregarded as appropriate, and project participants had noadvance knowledge about the st,-mgth of the correlationsand the amount of dependent variable variance explainedby a linear combination of these independent variables Theresults of this regression analysis were helpful in illustratingwhich independent variables were highly correlated witheach of DI and D2, and the explanatory capability of thesecounty-based independent variables Moreoyr. the empha-sis on county characteristics in this analysis was entirelyappropriate Nevertheless, it is clear that additional vari-ables need to he included in the analysis of countyparticipation rates. In particular, background and student-specific information on individuals attending Texas postsecondary education institutions is needed Some of thisinformation in the higher education sector is now beingprovided by the Coordinating Board's Uniform ReportingSystem: other information is still not being generated.

Some suggestions that flow from this regression analysisare

1. The Uniform Reporting System (URS) should heregarded as the primary Instrument for gathering thestudent information needed in further regression analysesof this type. This would necessitate changes in the types ofinformation gathered through the URS, as well as anexpansion in the types of institutions completing andsubmitting these forms.

3 The feasibility of generatint, or collecting student-specific information should also he seriously considered bythe Coordinating Board staff. For instance, it might behelpful to obtain Scholastic Aptitude Test scores of highschool students (possibly obtained through the TexasLducation Agency or through the institutions themselves),as well as a statement of post-secondary education inten-tions by each high school student who is approachinggraduation. This latter information iniglit be obtained in ahigh school interest surrey that would record the student'ssocial security number (for cross-referencing survey resultswith the URS data); the student's intentions with regard toattendance at a four-year college. two-year college, publictechnical institute, or proprietary school, as well as specificschool preferences. and the student's desired area ofconcentration. Such items as these would seem to ber.le%ant in predicting post-secondary education participa-tion in both academic and vocational sectors.

4. If data on Texas counties continue to be used in suchpredictions and we believe they should he they should inmany cases be collected at the smallest possible geographic

level less.. urban area tracts or ZIP code areas. Moreover, itis important that county data, if they are to play a majorrole in future analyses of this sort, be capable of beingfrequently updated. Such surrogate indicators as newhousing starts and new automobile registrations may alsohave to be included.

5. Alternative approaches to expanding institutionaliinoRettient in the Uniform Reporting System should beassessed for their feasibility. Effort.) might be made toinclude not only public and private senior and juniorcolleges unnersities but also Texas Education Agencycertificated proprietary schools in the set of institutionstiling completed CRS forms with the Coordinating Boardstaff. This would be a first step toward the development ofa state capability to analyze potential post-secondary

education not just higher education student participation.

ST1 DENT ALLOCATION MODEL

While the regression model is useful in assessing thestatistical significance of major determinants of countyenrollment, and participation rates. its predictive capabilityfor allocation purposes is somewhat limited by the nonful-fillment of certain underlying conditions. A visual inspecnon suggests a non-linear relationship between the depen-dent variable and the independent variables. In addition, acounty's flow of students is not tied to a single college ortumersity Perhaps most important of all, to design amultiple regression analysts that is operationally effectivefor Audent allocation purposes would require increasedregional homogemety and product specificity: this would

19

Data Presentation and Analysis Techniques

render the analysis almost useless for other regions andother points in time.*

As part of the demand study a methodology forassessing student demand at various institutions was in-vestigated. This technique is based on a spatial allocationprocess which assigns students by county of origin toinstitutions of higher education. The process is structuredto account for variations in the character of destinationinstitutions by subdividing institutions into categoriesMajor Research Institutions, M.A. and B.A.-Granting Insti-tutions. and Community and Junior Colleges These sub-divisions are further refined by separating the private andpublic educational systems.

This allocation process recognizes the homogenizingfeatures within these broad groupings by assessing the past"drawing power" of the individual institution relative tothe level within which the institution is located. Althoughthis is basically historical in nature, it is hoped that thepresent impact of the multitude of forces that define the"attractiveness" of a given institution can be representedthrough the use of recently observed behavior (Le.. 1970data).

The potential supply of students to institutions of highereducation is defined in two stages. The first is tl't numberof college-age students available in each county now or atsome future date. This information has been supplied to theCoordinating Board by the Population Research Center(Poston et al. 1973) through the use of the cohortsurvival- migration technique. Once the primary population"at risk" (i.e.. college-age population) is determined. thesecond stage occurs. This stage is the determination ofcollege-going rates by type or group of institution attended.When this is multiplied by the college-age population. apotential supply of students to institutions is determined_These elements are then entered into an allocation model inorder to determine the relative demand of student spaces atgiven institutions.

The model used in this study is a modification of oneformulated originally by David L. Huff to predict "con-sumer spatia: behavior" (Huff and Blue 1966). Animportant attribute of this work is that "consumer spatialbehavior" is shown to be explainable by utility theory(Luce 1959). The Huff model has shown an adaptability toa wide variety of multiple origin/multiple destinationproblems. For instance,. Huff ( 1 973) has used it to describe

a national system of planning regions based on urban

spheres of influence. David E. Ault and Thomas E.Johnson. Jr. (1973) have used the model to plan hospitalservice areas. George H Haines. Jr.. Leonard S. Simon, andMarcus Alexis (1972a. 1972b) have analyzed central citytrade areas using this technique

Appendix B contains a technical description of theallocation model used in this project.

For each Texas county the flow of students from thatcounty was determined for Texas universities and collegesaccording to the aforementioned six institutional groupings(e.g.. Public Universities and Colleges granting Bachelor andMaster Degrees (N =17)). These flows determined therelative role that distance played in allocating students froma given county to alternate institutional destinations. TableIII-5 provides an example of this procedure applied to onecollege and university group (consisting of 17 institutions)for one particular county. This procedure was repeated foreach of the six college and university groups. for each ofthe 254 Texas counties

In Table III-5. lambda represents the allocation factorand U is a statistic of goodness of fit. (See Appendix B for afurther discussion of lambda.) If U is less than one itindicates that the fit is better than a trend projection of thesame data. In all cases in which this model was applied tostudent flows. U was equal to or less than one.

The primary purpose of this phase of the researchproject was to calculate the probability distribution ofstudent attendance for a given group of schools. forstudents from a specific county. When summed by countyfor a particular institution. the student drawing power ofthat school on that county is determined. With the help ofthe Educational Data Center of the Coordinating Board.this information was incorporated into a 1980 institui :onalenrollment projection procedure based on 1970 county-to-institution student flow information.

The elements of the projection methodology are fairlystraightforward. once the probability distribution whichmatches student attendance from each county to eachinstitution is determined. The projection elements are

the projected college-age population (18.24) in eachTexas county in 1980 (Poston et al 1973 ):the 1980 college-going rate of each county projectedfrom existing state trends allocated to the countiesbased upon their 1970 rates of higher educationattendance (Educational Data Center staff interviews1974).the share of student enrollment that each insti-tutional group (two-year colleges. BA/MA institu-tions. research institutions) will draw in 1980 (Edu-

cational Data Center staff interviews 1974): and

20

the probability distribution of students in a givencounty attending a given college or university, basedupon the variant of the Huff model developed by theLBJ School to analyze student flow data

An application of this protection procedure to oneuniversity (East Texas State University) is given in TableIII-6. Table 111-7 summarizes the 1980 enrollment projec-tions for the six institutional groupings used in this analysis.

Uses of the Allocation Model

It is important to fully understand the limitations of thisallocation model analysis and the resulting projectionsFirst. the projections are based upon the reported fall headcounts of Texas residents at Texas higher educationinstitutions in 1970. Hence there is a built-in underesti-mation of approximately 14 percent resulting from missingdata, inaccurately reported data, Texas residents attendingeducation institutions outside the state. and non-Texasresidents attending Texas institutions.

The interpretation of these results is also quite difficultdue to the dynamic nature of the Texas "system" of highereducation during the years immediately following the fallof 1970 head count. This projection procedure onlyestimates student demand for (and thus only allocatesstudents to) Texas higher education institutions thatexisted in 1970. Student demand for newly establishedTexas institutions (and programs) and the impact of thisdemand on potential enrollments of existing institutions arenot taken into account: neither are changes in the highereducation "systems" in neighboring states considered. Itshould therefore be clear that, if the methodology demon-strated here is to be successfully applied for enrollmentprojection purposes, education planners must use the mostrecent student flow information and the institutionsexisting in the projection base year. and assume that nonew institutions will be created during the projectionperiod.

The 1980 enrollment projection figures for North TexasState University. The University of Texas at Arlington. andTexas Women's University are likely to exceed actualenrollment due to the post -1970 development of TheUniversity of Texas at Dallas campus. Similarly, the

enrollment projection for Southwest Texas State Universitydoes not take into account the impact of the new SanAntonio campus of The University of Texas. On the otherhand, the estimate for The University of Houston is likelylow, since enrollment at its new Clear Lake City campus isnot considered.

This model is also culturally blind: it may, for instance,slightly underestimate the drawing power of Pan American

however. When combined with the other project analyses ofstudent flow data at the regional level, this Huff modelvariant could be of considerable value in effectivelyincorporating demand/supply factors and data into post,secondary education planning in Texas.

ANALYTIC TECHNIQUES FOR PLANNING:A REGIONAL AND INSTITUTIONAL APPROACH

This report has examined a variety of analytic tech-niques for incorporating supply/demand information intopost-secondary education planning in Texas. Included have

been the Texas Atlas of Higher Education, the student flowversion of the MAPPER programs (as documented in theMAPPER Users Manual), the statewide regression analysisof county participation rates in higher education, and theLBJ School student flow variant of the Huff allocation(probability) model. These provide improved informationdisplay and analysis techniques to facilitate state educationplanning At the other end of the spectrum, institutionalplanning procedures, with an emphasis on program develop-ment. are examined in Chapter V through survey responsesof post-secondary education institutions in one sub-stateregion and in-depth studies of a few selected schools. Theseanalyses focus on present practices and clearly indicate theneed for the development of regional and institutionalplanning techniques that complement the statewide efforts.

An important initial task in relating state planning toinstitutional planning is the application of statewide tech-niques in different regions of the state, thereby prowlingthe student flow information needed by education institu-tions and planners to effectively coordinate their activities

One such tool, the Institutional Service Area (ISA)analysis, has been developed in this project to demonstratethe post-secondary education dynamics of any Texas region

, of any set of contiguous Texas counties). This analytictechnique is a straightforward application to a region of the

Atlas and MAPPER Users Manual information display toolsdiscussed in Chapter III Both institution-based and county-based matrices of county-to-institution student flows canbe provided for all counties and higher education institu-tions in the legion, for a five-year period

To illustrate the Institutional Service Area analysis,project participants decided to focus on a single sub-stateregion. The Austin - San Antonio area was selected as the

region of study. Included were the 21 counties constitutingthe Capitol Area Stare Planning Region (CASPR) and the

Alamo Area State Planning Region (AASPR).* County

*Barnes County has, at difterent times, been a member ofAASPR and the Coastal Bend State Planning Region and is notincluded in this e \ ample

characteristics of the region are summarized in Table IV-1The selection of the Austin San Antonio region in

preference to other regions of the state was based on severalfactors. These included

regional population growth;shifting economic patterns;the presence cf metropolitan centers; andrepresentative numbers of ethnic minorities.

In addition to these general factors, the region wasevaluated in terms of institutional mix, physical accessi-bility. information availability, and the presence of bothurban and rural characteristics While recognizing thediversity of sub-state regions, the project participants feltthat the Austin San Antonio area was as heterogeneouswith respect to population: economic activity, urban/ruralmix, and institutions as most other areas in Texas.

With respect to the institution-based analysis, the 14CASPR-AASPR collegiate institutions in existence duringthe period 1968.1972 are considered. Tables IV-2 throughIV-15 provide the basis for the discussion.

In each of these 14 tables, the institution's name is inthe upper left corner. Counties are listed on the far leftside. Below the counties appear the titles "Region,""State," and "Total." For each of the five years. the firstnumber associated with "Region" represents the totalnumber of students attending the institution who origi-nated from the selected region. i.e , from the counties listedon the table. The first "State" figure denotes, for each year.the total number of students attending the institution whocome from Texas counties outside the selected regionThese numbers have also been converted into percentagesto give reg.on and state breakdowns indicating the scope ofthe institution. i.e., whether it is predominantly state Orregional in terms of its student service area

The three columns under each of the years 1968 through

1972 provide more detailed student flow information foreach of the selected counties. In each of these tables, these

columns indicate, respectivelythe number of students in that institution whooriginate from the designated county:

this institution coming from the designated county,and

the percentage of all Texas-resident students attend-ing the institution who originate from the designatedcount%

As an example, consider Table 1V-13. Examining theclimes opposite "Region" for the years 1968 through1972, it is clear that St Phillip's College is becoming evenmore regional in its scope. Whereas 95 8 percent of thecollege's (Texas) students came from the selected region in1968, this figure had risen to 994 percent by 1972.Ft cusing on the counties, it is turther shown that, in 1972,96 8 percent of these regional students came from BexarCounty. Thus St Phillip's College Is not only regional in itsorientation but, in fact., very local.

Other institutions exhibit opposite trends. SouthwestTexas State University, for example, is experiencing anexpanding service area (see Table IV-2). The "State"proportion of its Texas-resident enrollment has beenincreasing at the expense of its regional enrollment

This institution-based analysis, as the Atlas, provides adescription lif each institution's service area. By examiningthe extent of the goegraphic area from which eachinstitution draws its students, post-secondary educationplanners can develop improved policies concerning facilityconstruction (and modification) and program development,Fur example, i college or university serving an increasingpercentage of students from counties outside the immediate%minty would need to consider the capacity of its existingdormitories. On the other hand. an institution such as St.Phillip's College that is serving an increasing member ofregional and local students may need to reassess its facilitiesin light of its shrinking service area. Such a reassessmentmight result in the construction of parking lots forcommute' students rather than dormitories. for example

Program development is similarly affected by a school'sserice ,tea Piograms should he designed to meet theeducation needs and the employ ment opportunities anddemands of the residents of the service ,Jea. Identificationof an institution's sercice area is a critical first step informulating institutional naming progiams

Student flow trends noted through institution-basedmay sis pros ide useful data in projecting future enrollmentstot colleges or umea sines The analysis also may aid theCoordinating Board staff in re-examining the scope ofinstitutions Further development and application of thisanalytical tool could provide the Coordinating Board staffwith another means of assessing the impact of newprograms on the distobution ut students among institu-tions

side. At the conclusion of this list of institutions appear thetitles "Region," "State," and "Total." The number ofstudents from the county attending colleges or universitieswithin the region is located in the "Region" category, thenumber of students from the county attending Texas highereducation institutions outside the region is located in the"State" category; and the total number of students fromthe county attending Texas colleges and universities is

located in the "Total" category.Detailed enrollment data are provided in three columns

for each institution, for each year from 1968 through 1972.The number of students from the county enrolled in eachinstitution is given in the first column, the percent ofcounty-resident students educated in the region attendingeach institution in the second column, and the percent ofcounty-resident students educated in the state attendingeach institution in the third column.

The proportion of students attending institutions in theregion relative to students attending schools outside theregion remained stable °vet this five-year period for most orthe CASPR and AASPR counties. A few counties, however,exhibited discernible shifts. For example, the percent ofWilson County (Table IV-36) students attending collegesand universities in the region increased steadily from 52 0percent in 1968 to 66.3 percent in 1972. On the otherhand, Travis County (Table IV-34 ) experienced a shift of itscollege-age population to schools outside the region overthe same period. In 1968 only 14 0 percent of -DavisCounty students were enrolled in out-of-region institutions,by 1972 this figure had jumped to 25.7 percent.

County-based analysis can assist an institution in betterprojecting its future student body we and composition(with respect to residence). Examining trends in countiesthat contribute heavily to its student population can helpthe institution detect shifts in student preference and canindicate whether the shift is an institutional or regionalphenomenon

County-based analysis also may serve to Identify inequi-tably apportioned educational resources. For instance. theobservance of counties with excessively high proportions oftheir respective college-age population attending out-ofregion schools may indicate inadequate regional facilities ora lack of programs designed to meet regional needs Suchidentification of potentially "deficient.' counties and/orinstitutions might enable the Coordinating Board staff tosuggest improved alternatives,

The Institutional Service Area (ISA) analysis can heapplied easily to any region of the state consisting ofcontiguous counties This potential application of ISAanalysis offers institutional planners an improved analyticaltechnique for self-improvement, while increasing the stateplanners' capability to facilitate comprehensive post-

secondary education institution coordination and developmeat.

It is equally important. however. that state plannerscomprehend institutional planning processes within post-secondary education, and the was in which supply"demand taLtois are considered in these processes. This

ampler seeks to clarify these processes by foL using on onespecific issue integrally related to physkal flames andLampus planning. namely , program development

piocesses in each institution within the state was mmos-siblc. and prnect participants decided to focus on a single

sub- state region.The Austin-San Antonio area was again selected as the

region of study, included were the comities constituting theCapitol Atea State Planning Region (CASPR) arid the

Alamo Area State Planning Region (AASPR) Althoughlying outside this region, the James Connally Campus ofTexas State Technical Institute (TSTI) in Waco was alsoincluded. This inclusion was based upon TSTI's expandingrole in the state's post-secondary educational system andthe relative proximity of Waco to the selected region.

Within the selected region two studies were undertakento examine institutional policies related to the considera-tton of supply/demand factors in program development Toprovide an overview of the interaction among educationalinstitutions, a regional survey was developed and dissemi-nated In addition, detailed analyses of program devel-opment within eight diverse institutions in the regionprovided a perspective on mad-institutional policies andprocedures. These studies are described in the next twosections

REGIONAL POST-SECONDARYEDUCAT ION SURVEY

Effective state post-secondary education planning isdependent upon communication and the flow of infoima-lion between all concerned sectors. Thus a survey wasdesigned by project participants to disclose both the degreeof inter-institutional interaction and the extent of inter-action hetsveen post-secondary education institutions andvarious organizations in the post-secondary arena. e g.. theCoordinating Board mid its staff This approach was takenin an attempt to relate the institutional program develop-ment process with state/regional planning concerns LBJSchool project participants felt that the information

generated by such a survey could provide broader

overview of the case study institutions, as well as provide

helpful information concerning institutions not selected formore detailed analysts

The regional post-secondary education survey was

mailed to top administrators in all 42 post-secondaryeducation institutions, proprietary schools as well as

public and private colleges and universities. in CASPRand AASPR Two questions were posed. The first questionrequested the respondent to indicate which of the followingtypes of interaction occur hetsveen the respondent's ilistl-tuition and each of the other post-secondary educationinstitutions In the region.

the second sin yey question asked the respondent toidentify which of the following types of interaction occurbetween the respondent's institution and each of 14

organizations and government agencies

info! manorial .

advisoi y:regulatory:member:budgetary. andlobby.

The quality of the responses to these two questionsvaned significantly among the 42 surveyed institutions. Forexample. the San Antonio College responses represent thecollective judgments of approximately 20 administrators.deans, and department chairpersons. This broad involve-ment appeared to be the exception rather than the rule.however.

The response rate for public and private colleges anduniversities was excellent. with 13 or 16 institutionsreturning completed suneys Proprietary scho,r1 responseswere less complete,. with q of 26 institutions in the regionresponding Although the nine responding proprietaryschools may not he representative of the region's pro-prietary schools, the response rate is reasonable lot a mailsurvey. (The average response rate in such suryeys is onlyabout 15 percent.)

Question I Responses

These results. summarized in Appendix C. clearlyindicate a lack of program planning interaction between (a)the public and poyatc colleges and universities in the regionand lb) the proprietary institutions w.thin the legion. Thiswas noted by the respondents in each educational sectoi.

01 instance. only 4 of the 13 responding colleges anduniYersibes indicated any interaction with any propuetar:school in the region. and in only two of the tour cases didthe interaction consist of any thing other than informalcontact. ('onversely none of the responding proprietaryschools ihdicated interaction of any of the first three typeswith any college or university in the region

One might expect non-communication between theproprietary schools and the public and private four -yearninstitutions. given their different program orientationsMore surprising was the limited interaction between pro-prietary schools and the t WO-) ear colleges Although SanAntonio College does appear to maintain close contact withproprietary schools in San Antonio. only one respondingproprietary school in the region noted interaction with atwo-year college.

In contrast, the responding public and private colleges

and universities in CASPR and AASPR indicated extensiveinformal contact with other institutions of this type. as wellas substantial interaction with respect to academic programplanning. education conference participation, and educa-tion committee involvement. Understandably, little Jointactivity related to vocational-technical program planningoccurred within this institutional sector.

Responses to this first question also imply substantialinteraction between proprietary schools. For instance, eightof the nine responding schools noted they had informalprogram planning interaction with other proprietaryschools in the selected region. Seven of the nine indicatedinteraction of this sou t in the context of educationconferences Surprisingly, however, none of the respondingproprietary schools indicated interaction with other pro-prietary schools in the region with regard to vocational-technical program planning.

Question 2 Responses

The responses to the second question (see Appendix C)are not ,is easily categorized and interpreted, due to themultiplicity of post-secondary education organizations andgovernment agencies in CASPR and AASPR. Nevertheless,the primary type of interaction occurring between respond-ing educational institutions and these organizations andagencies is clearly information exchange The survey re-

sponses further indicated that: with the exceptiou of theproprietary schooliTexas Education Agency certificationpiocedures, other types of contact between these govern-ment units and proprietary schools in the region are mini-mal

Pint-S'econdary Lineation

non-interaction could possibly I esult in excessive program

duplication.The survey does not describe the impact of inter-

institutional program planning interaction on intra-

institutional planning processes. For instance, surveyresponses indicated that 11 of the 13 responding collegesand universities interacted with similar institutions in theregion on academic program planning matters Whether thisis a public relations activity or actually influences internalplanning is unclear, however. (The eight institutionalanalyses in the next section focus on this issue.)

4. The proprietary school sector in CASPR-AASPR isrelatively autonomous. The only organizations/agencieswith which more than two of the responding proprietaryschools indicated any type of interaction were the TexasEducation Agency (TEA). the Texas Employment Com-mission (TEC). the Proprietary School Advisory Commis-sion (PSAC). and the Texas Association of ProprietarySchools (TAPS).

5. The value of the survey results more from its

overview of institutional interactions than from its specifi-cation of the impact such interactions actually have oninstitutional program planning and development. Neverthe-

less. this overview does reveal those organizations andagencies with which institutions wish to (or must ) interact.

This in turn informs state education planners of theenvironment in which institutions pursue their programdevelopment policies

INSTITUTIONAL PROGRAMDEVELOPMENT ANALYSES

Within the Austin-San Antonio region (i.e., CASPR andAASPR are more than 40 diverse post-secondary educationinstitutions Seven representative institutions were chosenfor in-depth analy see of institutional policies with regard tothe consideration of supply/demand factors in program de-velopment Included were a public senior college South-west Texas State University (San Marcos): a private senior

college St. Mary's University (San Antonio): three publictvv o-y ear colleges Austin Community College (Austin), SanAntonio College (San Antonio), and St. Phillip's College(San Antonio). and two proprietary schools Durham'sBusiness College (Austin ) and Parish Draughon's BusinessCollege arid Technical Institute (San Antonio) Included asthe eighth institution in this analysis was the JamesConnally Campus of the Texas State Technical Institute(TSTI m Waco. Although TSTI is located outside theseleoed region, the importance of the state technical

institute concept led to its inclusion and comparison with

other post-secondary education institutionsEstablished by the voters of Austin in December 1972,

Austin Gm/mu/ray college began classes in the fall of1971. Approximately 50 percent of the college's programs

66

are academically oriented and 50 percent occupationallyorien ted.

San Antonio College (SAC), operated together with St.Phillip's College under the jurisdiction of the San AntonioUnion Junior College District, was opened in 1925 as TheUniversity [of Texas] Junior College. SAC became a part ofthe San Antonio Public School System in 1930, andadopted its present name in 1948. It provides both transferand occupational programs. but emphasizes traditionalacademic areas and student transfers into four-year collegesand universities. St. Phillip's; on the other hand, focusesmuch of its attention on students who do not plan tocontinue education beyond two years. Originally foundedin 1898 as a private Episcopalian institution, it opened itsdoors in 1927 as a junior college serving the blackcommunity of San Antonio and vicinity. St. Phillip's,whose association with SAC began in 1942, now empha-sizes vocational-technical training and academic programsof a technical nature.

St Mary's University is private coeducational institu-tion owned and operated by the Society of Mary (RomanCatholic Church). First offering instruction in 1852, theuniversity currently offers undergraduate degrees in theSchool of Arts and Sciences and the School of BusinessAdministration. Advanced degrees are offered in law;education, arts and sciences, and business administration.

Chartered as Southwest Texas State Normal School in1899,, Southwest Texas State University is a coeducationalstate liberal arts institution offering a range of academicprograms at both the undergraduate and graduate levels.The institution has a regional focus, and seeks to appeal tostudent needs unanswered by other CASPR-AASPR post-secondary education institutions.

Durham's Business College. Austin,. was organized in1936. Its Business School Division and Technical SchoolDivision offer (according to the 1973.74 catalog) 10

different course offerings, with completion time per

offering ranging from 910 hours to 1,720 hours. Thecollege's approximately 300 students are primarily fromAustin and its immediate vicinity.

Pansh Draughon's Business College and Technical Insti-tute. San Antonio. has been in continuous operation since1888 The focus of the institute is on job placement. andthus its program has a strong business and industrialorientation. Its more than 500 students are enrolled in 20different business and technical programs.

The focus of the Texas State Technical Institute (TSTI)has been on producing individuals for immediate entry intothe Texas labor market. Created in 1965 by the TexasLegislature as a division of Texas A&M University. it beganclasses on the Waco campus in January 1966. A separategoverning board was established for the institute in 1969.Over 2,000 students are currently enrolled at the JamesConnally Campus in more than 55 degree and certificate

programs The institute's responsibilities are to !rain bothstudents and teachers in highly technical and vocationalprogram at easrs well as to conduct manpower develop-ment and mill/anon research programs to identify trainingand retraining needs in Texas

Procedures Within institutionsfor Program Development

One aspect of program development examined in theseeight institutions was the level at which program develop-ment takes place

In Southwest Texas State University. St Mary's Univer-sity and the three selected two-year colleges. programdevelopment generally occurs at the departmental level.Department faculty at these schools are responsible foridentifying the need for new programs and for developingcourse materials. At Southwest Texas. for instance, thedevelopment of the allied health professions programoriginated from a suggestion by a Biology Departmentfaculty member, who also researched the need for thisprogram without benefit of institutional support funds. AtAustin Community College. the Dean of OccupationalEducation and Technology designates a program leader ineach department to whom is given the responsibility fordeveloping new programs. After work is completed at thedepartment level in these schools. the program proposalsmust he cleared by various faculty and administrative units.and finally approved by the president and governing board.

At both San Antonio College and St. Phdhp's College.community groups uo have an impact on the programdevelopment process. Suggestions are always channeled tothe appropriate collegiate departments for review anddevelopment. No fu. teal procedures exist to solicit programideas from the community. this is achieved throughinformal faculty and administrative contacts,

In the two selected proprietary schools. no formalprocedures exist for program development. At ParishDraughon's. tor instance. !Mort-nal contacts of the school'sstaff with business and industry representatives. coin !nullitygroups and other schools ate used to modify existingprograms, New program ideas are usually suggested by theschool's director. on the basis of his business and educa-tional contacts. Program development within both pro-prietary schools occurs primardy at the discretion of theadministrative heads of the two institutions

TST I differs trom the examined four-year and two-yearinstitutions in that its program development process rsprimarily based in a Len; ral admimstrative dike establishedspeak all) for that purpose All program requests. most ofwhich flow from the state's business and industrial Loin-rummy . are Lhanneled into the dike of TSTI'S Manager ofCurrkultan and Facilities. This manager requests the

Program Development

school's Department of Occupational and EducationalResearch to perform a preliminary investigation of the needfor each proposed program. The manager's recommenda-tion for further program development (or for rejection)then is forwarded to the General Manager for Instruction,Existing departments become involved in the process onlywhen a proposed new program relates to existing ones.

Clearly the most prevalent program developmentpractice in these selected institutions is to delegate thisresponsibility to whichever faculty member or adminis-trator expresses the most interest in the new program. As aconsequence, the task is often performed by individualsfamiliar with the program area but unfamiliar with sourcesof and methods for developing supply/demand info' matronThis problem is further compounded by the timeconsuming nature of such activities,

It might be useful for each post-secondary educationinstitution to have a single office or position responsible forinvestigating new program requests. reviewing relevantsupply /demand factors. evaluating existing programs. andfunctioning as a liaison between the institution and thestate's educatior agencies on program development matters.The following sections describe how significant supply /,remand considerations are currently used in thus process,

institutional Interaction in Program Development

In examining institutional program developmentpolicies. the project participants sought to determine theextent to which post-secondary education in,titunonscommunicate with other such institutions in the process ofdeveloping programs. To what extent. for instance. doschools take into account the existing supply of similarpost-secondary programs in that geographic area)

The Regional Post-Secondary Education Surveyresponses. as noted above. indicated that institutionaladministrators in the ('ASPR and AASPR generally believedthey maintained considerable contact with other institu-tional representatives on progi am development matters.The eight institutional analyses reveal, however. thateffective interaction among these selected institutions islimited. This can be seen more dearly by noting Luirentpractices within these eight schools.

An important (and consideration in the pro-gram development activities of Southwest I exas StateUniversity has been its geographic location between TheUniversity of Texas at Austin and the several San Antonioinstitutions, In developing its allied health program. forinstance. Southwest Texas concentrated on providingprogram not provided elsewhere in the area It consultedwith area two-year colleges to determine if the latter'sgraduates might enroll in the program. Special contacts tin

this case were also made with St Phillip's College (SanAntonio). LI Cenno College (Dallas), and Tyler JuniorCollege foi these schools had experience in operatingrelated programs. This development work was all done byone protessoi however, and its success depended solelyupon his ability to perceive the steps that needed to betaken. Lacking. for example. were analytic techniques thatpiovided a clear Indication of institutional and programservice areas as all aid in making program developmentdecisions

St Mary's University is a member of an institutionalconsortium called United Colleges of San Antonio As aresult, it must consider the program offerings of Our Ladyof the Lake. Oblate. and Incarnate Word Colleges indeveloping its programs. This appears to be the extent of itsserious contacts with other schools, although the develop-ment of The Univorsity of Texas at San Antonio may resultin fume interaction with this institution.

Most schools review other institutions' programs toprevent duplication. St. Phillip's College and San AntonioCollege. on the other hand; look to other schools to seewhat program, they should be offering. There is no

apparent hesitation about duplhAting programs offered in(fillet institutions In tact, these two colleges often

duplicate each other's program: even though the San

Antonio Union Junior College District governs bothschools. This district also maintains a liaison committeewith The University of Texas at San Antonio to insuretransfeiability of student credits. particularly for the

district's large numbe- of Mexican-American students.The tw o selected proprietary schools are primarily

concerned about program development at other proprietaryschools. although Durham's Business College (Austin) doesstay informed about Austin Community College programofferings. Parish Draughon's stays informed about otherinstitutions' pi ograms through the !ex.'s Association ofP1oprietaiy Sch9ols.

A significant lack of contact was observed between TS-IIand public two-year colleges TSTI officials claim that thesecolleges have dit fering educational philosophies, and blamesthem for the limited communication. By law. TSTI mustreceive the approval of these two-year colleges whenotteong special off-campus lost! uctional programs in their

districts In its program development process. TSTI

specifically identifies those educational institutions, in andout of loos, public and private. which offer training inproposed new areas However, the assumption among TSTI

officials is that even it many schools offer the program.there must still be a need for more naming if industry isrequesting it. These officials believe that industry does not

try to overproduce trained manpower. since those busi-nesses will ultimately be requested by TSTI to assist inplacing graduates in jobs TSTI officials say there is no way

68

for them to know if industry goes to several schools

requesting the same programs. or if other schools aredeveloping similar programs simultaneously.

Impact of Student Demand on Program Development

Of particular interest in these eight institutional analyseswas the manner in which student demand for educationalprograms has been incorporated into the program development process.

In the case of the allied health piogram at SouthwestTexas State University, demonstration of student interest inthe proposed program was clearly a major concern of thefaculty member developing the proposal The professorinitial interest in the program was directly sparked by thefact that students at Southwest Texas were enrolling inpre-professional health courses. but were unable to com-plete work for a health degree. They had to transfer tofinish their training. To support his proposal, the professorvisited hospitals in Dallas. Houston, and the Austin -SanAntonio region to determine if their personnel would takeadvantage of the naming program to obtain licenses Healso consulted allied health educators in the state to see ifthey would be interested in enrolling in such a program Noattempt was made to quantify the number of studentslikely to enter the program in the future. however. It w a:simply a case of getting a "feel" for potential studentinterest In giving his approval of the program, the Dean ofthe College of Professional Schools. Southwest Texas StateUniversity. also shiwed a desire to respond to studentinterests but for different reasons With academic enroll-ments dropping, he realized it was essential to initiate highdemand programs to maintain state funding levels. Herealized as well that high demand programs were nowessentially job - oriented programs. especially at SouthwestTexas. given its large number of older-than-average stu-dents.

At St Mary's University. San Antonio College (SAC).and St. Phillip', College, student interest in new programs is

conveyed primarily through informal faculty- student

contacts At St Phillip's, for instance, students can petitionthe school to institute new courses or programs To plan forthe futin,:, St. Phillip's counselors recruiting in local highschools do try to obtain information on student interestsHowever. no formal survey instrument is used for thispurpose. nor are formal estimates of potential programenrollments made. At SAC, students will occasionally beasked to sign statements indicating their interests in

proposed programs. But here again no enrollment pro-jections are made to estimate future demand SA(' official,at times also look at other schools to see if their programsare attracting sufficient students before instituting a newprogram

Xustin Community College (ACC) has used the result, of.tudy done by the Austin Independent School District,

w Inch dealt with student /parent career interests, to ascer-tain information on student demand According to ACCofficials, however, student demand has been a minimalfa, tur in the college's program development process.

The proprietary schools studied do not attempt tode,elop estimates of potential enrollment in programs, i.e.-,of student demand. Information on students is collected,but it is neither aggregated nor used in the programdevelopment process.

The most sophisticated approach to predicting studentdemand has been implemented by Texas State TechnicalInstitute ITSTI). In addition to contacts with Veterans'Adminisnation offices and other TSTI campuses, the JamesConnally Campus in Waco relies extensively on "The HighSchool Career Interest and Information Survey" to predictpotential pi ogram enrollments. This career interest survey,.designed by TSTI's senior vice president. has been fundedby TSTI and the Texas Education Agency (TEA). Thesurvey was administered on a pilot project basis in differentparts of the state between 1070 and 1973, eventuallyreaching some 00,000 Texas high school students. thesurvey has been endorsed by TEA's 20 Regional EducationSelvv:e ('enters. which have recommended its annualadministration in the state's high schools. financial con-straints have prevented TEA from following up on thisproposal. Thus the data from the original surveys arerapidly becoming obsolete and les, valuable for planning1 STI. however. continues to administer the survey in highschools which it considers its "teeder schools."

In estimating potential enrollment for a program hornthe surveys. TSTI planners examine the interest responsesof the survey population for particul ir employment Late-gone,: as well as tin related job categories A projection isthen made of the po:mtial enrollment in the pi ogram basedupon Industry duster responses

Impact of Employer Demand on Program Development

Substantial differences exist among the eight selectedinstitutions with regard to the manner in which employerdemand impacts the program development and planningprocess. In some cases. industrial and business employerswere directly involved through advisory committees and thelike. in other situations. informal contact, between theschool and employers were predominant: and yet anotherapproach was to rely upon manpower projections publishedin trade and technical publications.

The development of the Southwest Texas allied healthprogram included a consideration of potential employerdemand for its graduates The professor developing theprogram traveled to schools. hospitals. and professionalassociation, to determine if manpower in this field was

Program Development

needed in texas He also used infonnation from nationalpublications discussing the shortage of allied health profes-sionals. The Dean of the College of Professional Schoolssupported the program idea in part because he believed thatnew federal legislation requiring increased licensing ofcertain health professionals would provide a market forgraduates. He also believed that hospitals in the stateneeded additional trained personnel in this area. OneCorpus Christi hospital had even contacted the s,:hoolrequesting such a program. However, as in the case ofstudent demand,. no attempt was made to quantify actualand future, demand for the program among employers. Inaddition, while the employers were consulted to ascertaintheir employment needs, health professional, were notformally involved in the piogram-development process itselfthrough the use of employer advisory committees This isconsistent with our finding that the development ofacademic programs, in both the four-year and the twoye,colleges,. does not generally involve the use of committee,and is thus less likely to include concern, about manpowerissues in the planning process.

Three of the examined schools St Phillip', College.Austin Comm umty College. and 1 STI do use manpowerstudies in the development of new progtams. At St. Phillip',College. after a new program is suggested. the director ofoccupational education (or his staff ) will contact the lexaEmployment Commission (TEC) to see a study has beendone in that occupational area within the past six month,St Phillip's will also have its staff conduct phone ofdoor -to -dour surveys of local industries to obtain estimate,of Industry manpower requirement,

At Austin Community College. the office of occupa-tional education and technology attempt, to asses,

employer demand for existing or proposed new programsthrough its own surveys. This IN not done. however. on asystematic basis

1Si! piovides the most thorough inswinional medi-amsni for developing manpower data to support newprogram pioposals. This stems directly twin 1S1 I's legisla-tive mandate. which was to provide programs 10 meet stalemanpower needs It also result, from the I S1 I mandate todo it:Neell on future vocational-technical education need,of the sue. Due to staff and financial limit,. ISMDepartment of Occupational and Educational Resealch hasnever been able to fully early out this latter part of themandate: instead, it has concentrated on pi oviding supportfor program development activities on the Connally Cam-pus.

Commere repoits. labour union publkations, piofe..sionaljournals. occasional council of government studies ofmanpowei needs, Chamber of Commeice reports, and,petal labor market analyses dune by groups like the Texashidustoal Desclopinent Group at Texas A&NI University.TSTI also LonduLts its own phone surveys of representativeemploy ers around the state to get their estimates ofmanpower requirements It is significant that TSTI concen-trates on assessing statewide need; while the junior collegesseek to identify more localized needs.

While all public vocational technical programs in Texasare lequired to have industry program advisory committees.these same three institutions St. Phillip's College.. ACC,and TSTI go beyond this formal requirement and actuallyimolve potential employers in the planning process. Assis-tame is sought in assessing need for the new programs andui dkneloping the couises for them, as well as in updatingand evaluating existing programs.

In contrast to this, the two selected proprietary schoolsmaintained no formal mechanisms for industry input intoprogram development or program operation. In developinga program; the directors of Durham's Business College willcontact certain industry people on an ad hoc basis. Theybelieve the school staff is sensitive to industry needs andwill respond quickly to changes in the economy. Thedirector of Parish Draughon's said the school staff keeps up

cm rent information on manpower needs through tradepublications and ,2oveminent documents, but that these arenot used in program development The school is not

concerned about min oving its use of supply /demand datain program development, it believes that its informal systemis working well and that the costs associated with moreextensive data collection and analysis would be too high.

Impact of Program Evaluation on Program Development

I he institutional program development process does not1, !inmate with the implementation of the program Rather.through the Lontinuing input of students, employers, andfaculty /administrators. the process of program evaluationLontinlICS d 01 irg the program's existence

the project's eight institutional analyses reveal that

%0Lational-teLluuLal plogrann, are evaluated much inurefrequently than are academic programs. This is largely dueto the fact that it is relatively easier to measure theaLblinement of pmogram objectives tua vocational technicalprograms than it is for academic programs.

The fundamental ,bjeLtive of a vocational - technicalprogram is to train individuals for employment. Themeasure of success of a vocational-teLlmiLal program isoften judged by the number of students who securetraining- related jobs up.m completion of the program In

addition to placement data, a program may be evaluated on

the basis in surreys of employer satisfaction with the

70

progiaes graduates and student assessments of the pro-gram's merit.

Program evaluation of academiL progiao;s is coin phLatedby the fact that preparation for employment is often onlyone of sevei al program objectives. The variety of satesupon which an academic program must he measured doesnot invalidate the use of placement data but rather suggeststhe need to employ a wide variety of evaluation techniques.

At the present time no systematic placement data arecollected for academic programs in CASPR and AASPR.Public institutions are required to collect such data forstate-funded and federally-funded vocational - technical edu-cation programs. But these data are frequently gatheredonly to satisfy reporting requirements and are seldom usedin the program development process.

Concerning other methods of program evaluation, ParishDraughon's and TSTI indicated they are beginning tosystematically solicit employer evaluations of their grad-uates in an effort to improve their programs Whethel ornot this information will he used by the institutionsremains an unanswered question.

Concluvions

Post-secondary' education at the institutional level. as atthe state level, benefits from knowledge about the impactof supply/demand factors (e.g. student demands, employerneeds, program offerings of other institutions) on theplanning process. This chapter has focused on an importantaspect of this planning process, namely, progran develop-ment. to seek to clarify institutional policies and practices.

Through an overview survey of all post-secondary

education institutions in the Austin-San Antonio region(i.e. CASPR and AASPR) and in-depth institutionalanalyses of eight institutions, project participants were ableto develop insight into the current institutional processesand a better appreLiation of their defiLiencies.Comlusionsbased upon these observations follow.

I. Substantial informal institutional interactions occurwithin the public and private collegiate scoot in the

selected region. The significance of this interaction is

difficult to evaluate, however. Cooperative planning withinthe proprietary school sector in CASPR and AASPR is lesscommon. Furthermore, interaction between these twosectors is virtually nun - existent between the proprietaryschools and the public two-year 'tonally- oriented col-leges. While efficiency is not alway Desirable educational

goal, it would appear that institutions must inure effec-tively incorporate other institutions' planning decisions intotheir own planning processes.

2. It might be useful for each post-secondary educationiutution to designate specific responsibility (to an officeor individual) for investigating the desirability and feasibil-ity of new and existing programs in light of various student,

80

employ er, and institutional supply 'demand considerationsIlls designee could also function as a liaison between theinstitution and the state agencies concerned with institu-tional planning activities.

3. in an effort to facilitate institutional-state agencyinteraction and to develop improved lines of communica-tion w ithin sub -state regions, an appropriate set of sub-stateregions 1-.g., the 24 state planning regions, which includeCASPR and AASPR) might assume a more active role asclearing houses and disseminators of information.

4. More effective student follow-up and placementprocedures need to be developed; further information onwhat happens to dropouts is also needed. This type ofinformation is particularly useful in planning vocational-technical programs and institutional policies. All publiccolleges and universities might he required to maintain suchinformation on all former students. it might also he

submitted, for example, with appropriations requests.5. Own the thrust of recent federal legislation (e.g.,

lion, it is critical that vocational-technical programs heresponsive to employer, community,. and student concernsand needs, The advisory committee structure has beenestablished to provide such input into the planning process.However, the proiect's analyses support the concern of theTexas Advisory Council for Technical-Vocational Education (1974) that these committees are often ineffective inserving this function, and the guidelines for their establish,went and operation should he reviewed. The feasibility ofestablishing similar advisory committees for academic pro-grams might also be examined, is well as the relatr.eadvantages and disadvantages of regional or statewiderather than institution-focused, advisory councils.

The administration of a brief high school career interestsurvey, either on a sample or a complete survey basis, mightalso he useful for institutional and state-level planning. aswell as for later follow -up analyses. (The State of Min-nesota, for example, receives this and a variety of otherinformation from all high school juniors and uses itextensively in student follow-up and in planning analyses.)

CHAPTER VI

AREAS FOR FURTHER INVESTIGATION

The analytic approaches described in this report shouldcontribute to a more effective state and institutionalpost-secondary education planning effort. By no meanshowever, iaxe all issues and problems been resolved.

A summary listing of areas requiring further investiga-tion is complicated by their overlapping nature. Neverthe-less. it is helpful to classify them under three headings.( I ) vocational technical sector: (2) academic (collegiate)sector, and (3) authority of and coordination betweenstate postsecondary education agencies.

VOCATIONAL- TECHNICAL SECTOR

Supply and Demand

Further analy sec to assess both the need for varioustypes of post-secondary vocational-technical education andthe ability of the state and 'or local community toaccommodate existing and future demand are required. Forexample

To what extent have institutional service areas beendelineated and used in planning for and providingvocational-technical education?How has,: the planning and program responsibilities(with respect to the comprehensive Employment andTraining At ) of local manpower planners in Texasbeen incorporated into discussions of supply anddemand'To what extent is vocational-technical education inproprietary schools and in public post-secondaryInstitutions meeting the needs of Texas students andemployers" How can this best he assessed''

Data Resources

A more systematic review of information sources.availability. utility, and levels of aggregation would behelpful For example

What information is available on the degree to which.and the effectiveness with which. different socio-economic groups are being served by the state's

public and private vocational-technical programs"What role should the Texas Employment Comm.,

72

son. the Advisory Council on Technical-VocationalEducation; the Governor's Advisory Committee orPost-secondary Education Planning, and other stateagencies assume in the generation and/or collection ofvocationaltechnical education and manpower/laborinformation"

Funding

There is a need to assess the adequacy of funding forpostsecondary vocattonal technical education in Texas andto describe how the funds federal: state. local, andprivate are being expended

How much stateappropnated money supports post-secondary vocational-technical schools and programs"Who receives it" For what purposes is it spent'How might decreases or shifts in federal support (e.g..resulting from federal vocational education legislationin 1975) affect state vocational-technkal education'In what ways do federal funds and associatedreporting requirements influence state vocational-technical education policies and programs"

Planning and Coordination

Existing policies and procedures in the planning, admin.istration. and intrasect coordination of soca tional.

technical education should he clarified and. it necessary.reexamined For instance

What formal and informal planning processes existwithin the Texas Education Agency (TEAT''How does rEA assess the need for postsecondaryvocational-technical programs. and how are prioritiesestablished"How are post-secondary vocational technical institu-tions (public and proprietary ) encouraged P:and coordinate programs and facilities" Is unneces-sary duplicatio.1 of programs and facilities beingavoided'To sonic extent, local athisoo councils assess needsand plan programs. To whom are they accountable.'In what ways do they interact with the stateeducation agencies.'

NATURE OF THE PARAMETERS

It has been shown in a number of studies that spatialmovements display a distancedecay function. i.e., move-ments decline increasingly with distance Therefore. inter-action models such as the one being employed in this studyraise distance to sonic power. This exponent is noted as X(lambda) in equation 121 above. This is simply a recognitionthat. in general. students will select to go to the nearestcollege if school services and sins are held constant.

If An denotes actual student flows from county r to aschool / and thethe expected flows. then a measure ofcorrespondence between the two is simply the differencesquared. The sum of squares for all paired %allies wou:,: he

Anodic! use for the RMS prediction error is to comparepredictions and "no-change extrapolations..' This measure-ment can he achieved by dividing the RMS prediction errorby the square root of the mean square successive differenceof the actual values. The result is the positive square root of
