The goal in developing this ASHE Reader was to provide a contextualized picture of community colleges, having their own history, their own place within the contemporary higher education system, and their own future trajectory. These selections of readings do not place community colleges on a pedestal, nor do they attempt to condemn. They offer a rich array of perspectives, theoretical frameworks and research-based evidence drawn from quantitative and qualitative investigations to give readers a fuller understanding of these distinctive and increasingly pivotal institutions of higher education. This Reader is different from any other ASHE Reader because it focuses on a specific institutional type--the community college. One of the reasons this book is so necessary is because other readers that focus on higher education generally include few selections on community colleges, despite their enormous contribution to the higher education enterprise in the U.S. and their growing importance internationally. Thus, this Reader on community colleges is an important means to convey information about this institution to higher education scholars as well as practitioners. This book is designed for two major audiences: (1) faculty and graduate students in courses that focus on the community college, and (2) individual scholars and practitioners who are interested in an overview of the community college. Master's and doctoral programs for general higher education administrators, community college faculty and administrators, and student affairs administrators can use the Reader to supplement various higher education courses. For the second group of individual scholars and practitioners, scholars new to the study of community colleges can learn about major issues dominating the study of community colleges and the diverse perspectives from which the institutions are viewed. Practitioners such as members of the American Association of Community Colleges (AACC), the Association of Community College Trustees (ACCT), and community college faculty and administrators can use the book to become acquainted with current research on the institutions in which they work. They can benefit from reading and understanding the wide range of perspectives associated with community colleges, from highly critical to neutral to complimentary. They can understand and appreciate more fully that not all research finds fault with the community college nor is the research consistently laudatory.

What does it means to work toward racial equity in higher education in the 21st century? This monograph answers just that with a synthesis of theory, research, and evidence that illuminate the ways in which racism shapes higher education systems and the experiences of people who navigate them. Higher education leaders must move beyond vague notions of diversity and do the difficult work of pursuing systemic transformation and creating more inclusive environments in which racially diverse populations can thrive. Such work necessitates a deep understanding of the historic and contemporary role of racism in shaping postsecondary access and opportunity. This work will be of interest to those who recognize how advancing racial equity benefits all members of the campus community and larger society. This is the 1st issue of the 42nd volume of the Jossey-Bass series ASHE Higher Education Report. Each monograph is the definitive analysis of a tough higher education issue, based on thorough research of pertinent literature and institutional experiences. Topics are identified by a national survey. Noted practitioners and scholars are then commissioned to write the reports, with experts providing critical reviews of each manuscript before publication.

Since the publication of the 2nd Edition of this Reader in 2001, there has been a large increase in the amount of research and scholarly publication on issues of higher education finance. This is not surprising, given the pattern of decreased public funding and increased student cost over this period. Strategic planning and its relationship to budgeting under growing financial constraints have been of continuing interest among both higher education scholars and practitioners. What has changed, however, is the greater inclusion of explicitly economic perspectives in publications dealing with various aspects of postsecondary education. Because of these changing publication patterns, it was appropriate to add the word "Economics" to the title of this edition. Inside you'll find a mix of scholarly and practitioner-oriented publications, as well as thoughtful scholar-written section introductions that bring the reader up to date on the current issues.
