A questionnaire was sent to 2,045 students who had entered Hawaii community colleges in fall 1975, continued their enrollment in spring 1976, but who did not enroll in fall 1976 for a third semester. The purpose of the questionnaire was to obtain data on reasons for non-continuance, to obtain information on the fall 1976 activities of non-continuing students and on their future educational plans, and to provide non-continuing students with an opportunity to evaluate their community college experience. A total response rate of 43% was achieved. Results of data analysis indicated: (1) major reasons for non-continuance were transfer to another college (24%), work preference (15%), and desired classes unavailable (15%); (2) 56% of the respondents were working in fall 1976 while 27% were attending another school; (3) 50% indicated plans to continue their education in spring 1977 and 13% planned to continue at a later time; and (4) the best average ratings of characteristics of the college experience were for friendship with other students and for instruction, while the lowest rating was for the variety of courses available. Tabular data are presented throughout the report. Additionally, data are analyzed according to institution, non-continuing student demographic characteristics, and type of educational program. (JDS)
