Report to Accrediting Commission for Community and Junior Colleges, Western Association of Schools and Colleges.
Coastline Community Coll., Fountain Valley, CA.
This document, prepared as an accreditation report, provides an overview of the function, structure, services, and staffing of Coastline Community College (CCC), a noncampus institution which opened in September 1976. CCC was established because of continuing increases in the number of students in the Coast Community College District. Fiscal constraints prohibited site acquisition and construction for a new campus, but instructional and organizational alternatives and technology allowed for the formation of a college without walls, whose campus is the community. CCC has assumed responsibility for all programs previously offered through the evening divisions of the two existing district colleges. Its curriculum is comprehensive; in addition to regular courses offered in a variety of settings, students have opportunities to participate in independent study, cooperative and work study programs, and on-the-job training. The faculty of CCC are presently drawn from other district and area colleges, and from the community, and are hired on a part-time basis. Student services and learning resources centers are available at sites throughout the community, as well as at the college's administrative center. (JDS)
