The Community College Civic Outcomes Survey, Spring 2015 study examines the individual and institutional factors associated with greater civic agency, capacity, behavior, and knowledge among college students. In Spring 2015, two surveys were digitally administered at nine community colleges. These nine colleges were purposively selected for diversity in terms of geography, campus setting, size, and the racial and ethnic composition of their student bodies. From a total of 98,838 recipients, 4,788 usable surveys were returned, for an aggregate five percent response rate (response rates varied from two to 13% among the nine colleges). This data includes a sample of 3,897 from those surveys collected.
The Civic Outcomes Survey (COS) was administered to students, and included questions related to voting, political and community engagement, civic knowledge, and leadership development. The Institutional Questionnaire (IQ), was admitted to each college's liaisons to The Democracy Commitment (TDC), and included questions related to college-level factors known to influence student engagement. These questions assessed for institutional intentionality towards civic engagement through college missions and strategic planning, as well as academic and faculty focus on civic involvement. Both instruments were previously tested in a small regional pilot and were subsequently refined to allow for greater response variability. Demographic variables include race, income, gender, and enrollment status.

The Community College Civic Outcomes Survey, Spring 2016 study examines the individual and institutional factors associated with greater civic agency, capacity, behavior, and knowledge among college students. In Spring 2016, two surveys were digitally administered at 13 community colleges, or community college systems.

This data includes a sample of 1,693 surveys from those collected.

Blankstein, Melissa; Wolff-Eisenberg, Christine; Braddlee,
The Community College Libraries and Academic Support for Student Success (CCLASSS) student survey is part of a multi-phase project which has been funded by a grant from the Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS) [RE-96-17-0113-17]. Seven community colleges participated in their own customized instance of the CCLASSS student survey. The questionnaire covers topics in several key areas including students' personal and professional goals and objectives, as well as unique challenges students face in achieving these goals.
A series of service concepts was tested to determine how valuable a variety
of services might be for students. These service concepts include: the aid of a social worker; the ability to borrow and access various technologies; child
care services; civic engagement opportunities; workshops on digital privacy
issues; access to a single point of contact for navigating college services
broadly; access to a personal librarian; and opportunities to display and share coursework. All respondents randomly received four out of eight of the service concepts. Demographic variables in this study include age, race, and gender.

The Higher Education Randomized Controlled Trial (THE-RCT) study aims to capitalize on existing data from postsecondary education RCTs to foster substantive and methodological scholarship and encourage teaching and learning opportunities. The cornerstone of THE-RCT is a restricted access file (RAF). The initial version contains individual-participant data from more than 25 of MDRC's higher education RCTs covering 50 institutions and over 50,000 students. The data were originally collected as part of different randomized controlled trial evaluations of a variety of higher education interventions. The data were collected for different student samples, at different times, and in different locations for each study.
The data were collected from four data sources: 1. Baseline: Baseline student demographic data (e.g., gender, race/ethnicity, age, etc.) were gathered, either via a survey administered to students upon joining the study (but prior to random assignment) or from study colleges' administrative records; 2. College Transcript: Student transcript data (e.g., enrollment, credits attempted, credits earned, GPA) were provided by the study colleges or state higher education agencies; 3. College Credential Attainment: Student credential attainment data were provided by the study colleges or state higher education agencies; 4. National Student Clearinghouse: Student enrollment and credential attainment data were provided by the National Student Clearinghouse via their StudentTracker database. This includes enrollment and credential attainment data at colleges beyond the colleges where the study took place.
The RAF contains student-level data, including baseline demographics (e.g., gender, race/ethnicity), outcomes (e.g., enrollment, credits earned, credentials), an indicator of experimental group (e.g., program or control group), and study variables (e.g., a variable that allows users to link to the RCT-level database).

Moving the Needle on College Student Basic Needs: National Community College Provost Perspectives, United States, 2020 (ICPSR 38833)

Blankstein, Melissa; Wolff-Eisenberg, Christine
Through the Holistic Measures of Student Success (HMSS) project, funded by the Educational Credit Management Corporation (ECMC) Foundation as part of their Basic Needs Initiative cohort, the researchers unpacked and explored how student success has traditionally been defined and measured within the community college sector and what new metrics and data collection processes can be developed to more holistically reflect the community college student experience. Therefore, this project aimed to (1) establish a shared understanding of current institutional practices in defining student success, and (2) measure the sector's openness to new approaches, especially those focused on students' basic needs.
To shed light on the challenges and opportunities associated with the collection and prioritization of a broader set of student success metrics, especially those focused on a more holistic set of student experiences and challenges like food and housing security, the research team surveyed community college provosts across the United States in fall 2020. The survey examined national provost perspectives on college priorities and influencing factors, traditional data collection practices, emerging data collection processes on student basic needs, and the role of data disaggregation for advancing equity.

Blankstein, Melissa; Wolff-Eisenberg, Christine
The Community College Academic and Student Support Ecosystems (CCASSE) project, funded by a grant from the Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS) [LG-96-18-0198-18], examines how academic and student support services at not-for-profit associate-degree granting colleges are organized, funded, and staffed, and how these services can most effectively advance student success. Researchers surveyed chief academic and student affairs officers at colleges across the United States on success measures, services offered, resource challenges and constraints, and vision for future service provision. They investigated current structure and organization of services, challenges senior administrators face, and their anticipated changes to service provision in the future.
