Based on data from 37 states, part I focuses on community college funding indicating an increase in overall levels of support. Data are provided on sources of operating funds by percentage of total funds available, state appropriations for all education, sources of state funds for general operating expenditures; funds allocated on the basis of program costs; reported changes in support mechanisms since fiscal year 1986; sources of funding for non-credit programs; funding for operations by means other than enrollment calculations; percentage of total state funds in support of categorical programs; sources of funds for capital outlay; and sources of local tax revenue in support of community colleges. Part II contains data on mean expenditures per full-time equivalent (FTE) student, including comparable data for 1985. This section also provides information on full-time and part-time headcount enrollments, as well as annual FTE student enrollment figures. States are listed in rank order by expenditure per FTE.
