Katsinas, Lacey, and Hardy Classification Overview
Developed initially by Katsinas and Lacey in mid-1990s, updated in 2005 by David Hardy
KLH uses 2000 U.S. Census Data KLH uses 2000-01 & 2001-02 NCES IPEDS
Data Katsinas, Lacey & Hardy’s work is the basis
of the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching’s first-ever classification of all two-year colleges (released in February, 2006).

Important Details to Understand as We Look at the Findings
Applied the 2005 Katsinas et al. Classification Schema retroactively over the 20-year time period
Only studied rural, suburban, and urban public community colleges
Used IPEDS and HEGIS publicly accessible data Any comparisons between enrollment and
finance data should be done with the understanding that finance data represent one full year while enrollment data cover only one semester (fall).

Important Details to Understand as We Look at the Findings (cont.)
Criteria for inclusion in study Report both finance and enrollment data for
each of the Fiscal Years 1981, 1986, 1991, 1996, & 2001
Imputed data are included AL, HI, KY, LA & SD had no colleges meeting
criteria Data for some states may be affected
by the percentage meeting the criteria; in general, about 70% of all colleges reported data for all time periods (good sample).

The data show us…
Geography,Governance,
and Funded Missions MATTER!

If overall state dollars are increasing, how is there slippage?
Yes, state appropriations have increased in total dollars.
HOWEVER… Enrollment increased Expenditures are increasing Percent of tuition increases greatly
out-pace increases of state dollars
![Page 18: National Study of Community College Finance, 1980-2001 BILLY C. ROESSLER, PH.D. Assoc. Dir. of Admissions and Records, Tarrant County College District](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070411/56649c9a5503460f94957353/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)

To come even close to injecting needed funding to supplant steep decline in state investments required tuition increases far above inflation. Thus, tuition rose..
As a percent of total revenues As a percent increase of $$ over 20
yrs As measured by dollars per fall FTE In constant 2001 dollars, the increase
in revenue dollars from tuition and fees revenue category was almost equal to that of state appropriations!
![Page 19: National Study of Community College Finance, 1980-2001 BILLY C. ROESSLER, PH.D. Assoc. Dir. of Admissions and Records, Tarrant County College District](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070411/56649c9a5503460f94957353/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)

What about the dramatic increases in workforce development revenues?
They did not counter the combined decreases in state and local appropriations.
Most of increase was in the federal category These funds are often for specific purposes
(workforce training) at a time when transfer function needs investment (Tidal Wave II).
Institutional resources are used to write grants to obtain and maintain these funds.

What could the increased tuition mean for students? Increased financial burden for
students and their families Could the tuition increases…
Be a factor contributing to the increased part-time enrollment?
Negatively impact access? Lead to increased debt upon
graduation? What about those who do not complete the
degree?

Let’s look at Minnesota to see impact of high tuition policy Minnesota students pay $4,600 per
year in community college tuition. Minnesota ranked #1 among
states in % of HS graduates continuing in college in 1989.
Minnesota ranked #17 among states in % of HS graduates continuing in college in 2003.

22
What about at the colleges? They likely working harder to simply
maintain their relative budget positions
They must commit significant human resource investment to obtain… Increased local appropriations Increased tuition and fees Workforce training grants (writing,
evaluating, etc.)
