Tom Brock told Open Campus that community colleges are still serving fewer students than they were a decade ago, which raises financial concerns. “It may not be such a bad thing, though, if smaller enrollments help community colleges serve the students they have more effectively. That will require changes in their business model and how they deliver instruction and services,” he said.
