Abstract
This Periodic Review Report presents and analyzes the major changes in prospects and programs that have occurred at LaGuardia Community College since the previous Middle States Report o f 1992. Following a general introduction to LaGuardia, the Report offers chapters on institutional assessment, the teaching and learning environment (divided into five sections corresponding to the main organizational units of the College), equity and diversity, and finance and facilities planning. It evaluates the trends that have emerged that will affect LaGuardia's plans for the future; and assesses the quality of programs as the College attempts to respond to student needs and major academic, economic, demographic, and governmental forces. The balance of this introduction outlines the substantial challenges that LaGuardia anticipates in the future and the ways that the College is positioning itself to deal with these challenges. The introduction presents a summary of the PRR planning process and an overview of the comprehensive student-centered planning and assessment that will permit the College to carry out its educational mission.
