In spring 1993,a study was conducted to re-validate the 1989 survey, gathering dataon more campuses and updating the list of branch campuses. Forty-ninestate systems of higher education were first surveyed to ascertainthe number of two-year branch campuses. Twenty-eight statesresponded, resulting in 29 campuses not previously identified by theresearcher. A revised version of the 1989 survey instrument was thenmailed to 84 branch campuses, with 64 returning surveys for aresponse rate of 76%. Results of the study included the following:(1) 41% of campuses identified themselves as community collegeslocated within 100 miles of the main campus; (2) 41% of the branchcampuses were governed by the main campus, while 38% were governed bya state board; (3) funding for 60% of the institutions came fromdirect state appropriations; (4) 40% of institutions had from 31 to50 full-time faculty, while 36% had fewer than 30 full-time faculty;(5) the typical branch campus served between 501 and 1,500 students;(6) the typical student body was 20% vocational-technical educationand 80% academic transfer; (7) typical teaching load for full-timefaculty was between 12 and 14 credits; (8) only 8% of the campusesdid not have an administrative council; and (9) the autonomy ofbranch campuses was indicated in local control of expenditures (83%),local faculty hiring (69%), and faculty tenure (97%).

INTRODUCTIONOn November 10, 1987, the American Association of Communityand Colleges(AACC)Board of Directors voted to establish theCouncil of Two-Year Colleges of Four-Year Institutions (Morgan).The approved mission reads:This council promotes the unique contribution of communitycolleges in partnership with four-year institutions. Focusingprimarily on university branches and campuses that offer theassociate degree, the council represents these institutions atprofessional meetings, attempts to increase their visibilityin professional literature, and fosters interinstitutionalcommunications and linkages (AACJC Membership Directory).The Council of Two-Year Colleges of Four-Year Institutionsquickly became nicknamed the"Two by Four"Counciland metofficially for the first time on April 27, 1988, in Las Vegas toapprove a constitution and bylaws, elect officials, and establishgoals."Two by Four"The establishment of theCouncil,thesixteenth council within the American Association of CommunityColleges, brings to fruition the dreams and hard work begun byStanley Sahlstrom,Minnesotaformerly the provost at the University ofCrookston, and Don A. Morgan, University of Minnesota.The results of this pilot survey were presented at the 73rdAnnual Convention of the American Association of Community Collegesin Portland on April 30,concurrent sessions.1993, during one of the convention'sThe feedback obtained from participants3AIt
attending the convention was used to improve and provide furthervalidation of the pilot survey instrument and to provide furtherrefinement of the list of two-year colleges which are branches offour-year institutions.Purpose of the StudyThe purpose of this study was three-fold:to re-survey andre-validate Dunlap's 1989 survey of branch campuses, attempting toreach a greater number of campuses; to update and refine a list oftwo-year lower division public institutions in the United Stateswhich are identified as branch campuses of baccalaureate surveyinstrument which will be used to formulate further extensiveresearch of branch campuses in the United States.4
Need for the StudyIn January, 1989, Dr. William S. Dunlap, Washburn Universityof Topeka, conducted a survey to determinethe administrativestructure of member institutions of the Two by Four Council inrelationship to the university in which they are housed and o year colleges.selected descriptive institutional data was alsocollected on member institutions."Thirty-one institutions weresent survey instruments with 24 responding (Dunlap 1989).The Twoby Four Council was a small unit within the American Association ofCommunity Colleges at the time of Dr. Dunlap's survey and had verylittle exposure to the potential number of institutions it wasdesigned to serve.Dr.Dunlap recommended thefollowing issues/questions beincluded for further study:1.The relationship between the university and the branchcampus or community college unit.2.Articulation of course work between the two-year collegeand other academic units of the university.3.Is there shared control of academic matters of hiring,promotion and faculty tenure between the two year collegeand the university?4.Is promotion and tenure policy different for two yearcollege faculty than other university academic units?5.11
Is there shared control of administrative matters in5.developing the two year college budget?METHODOLOGYTo accomplish the goals of this study,conducted.two mailings wereThe first mailing was to forty-nine state systems ofhigher education, i.e., the state offices of community colleges ineach state.The directory used was entitled Forty-Nine StateSystems, 1992 Edition, published by the American Association ofCommunity Colleges. A copy of the letter sent to the state agenciesis identified as Attachment I.The results of this mailing areprovided under the heading Results of State Department Mailing.Dunlap's survey was reviewed and revised for the purposes ofthis study.The format was adjusted to improve the layout and toprovide categories for ease in answering the questions.To addressthe specific issues for the purpose of this study, questions wereadded to gain information related to the definition of the term"branch campus," to gain additional information related to theidentification of branch campuses in the United States, and toobtain input from the branch campus CEOs surveyed as to therelevance of the survey instrument.addedtoDunlap'ssurveyThere was also a questionrequestinginformationfromtherespondents as to additional questions which should be asked tofurther profile branch campus affiliation issues.instrument utilized is Attachment II.6The survey
One of the purposes of this research effort was to acquire alist of all two-year campuses affiliated with or considered to bebranches of baccalaureate degree granting institutions.A list ofinstitutions for the purpose of revalidating Dr. Dunlap's surveywas needed.From the 1993 Higher Education Directory and TheCollege Handbook, 1993 Edition, a list of 84 institutions werewith baccalaureate degree grantingidentified as'affiliated'institutions.This list of institutions was mailed the surveyinstrument addressed to the campus Chief Executive Officer.Results of the State Department MailingOne of the goals of this research project was to identify,with as much accuracy as possible, the two-year lower divisionbranch campuses of baccalaureate degree granting institutions,commonly referred to as community college branch campuses.Aletter, Attachment I, was mailed to each of the State Departmentsidentified in Forty-Nine State Systems,1992 Edition as stateagencies responsible for the community colleges within each state.The text is so named because,as stated in the Preface,"Theresponse form South Dakota, while gratefully acknowledged, was notused in this edition because that state currently does not have anycommunity colleges."The results from this survey are listed byeach state and identified as follows:7

these nineteen states.A total of twenty-nine institutions were identified in theresponsesfromthestatesystems which were not previouslyidentified as branch campuses by this researcher.Therefore, thetotal number of branch campuses, as identified by this research, is113 campuses.Those campuses identified with the asterisk (*) havebeen determined to be branch campuses not previously identified bythe researcher in The College Handbook or in the 1993 HigherEducation Directory.The eighty-four campuses identified in thedirectories are listed in Attachment III.Survey ResultsThe survey instrument developed for this research effort isidentified as Attachment II.Eighty-four campuses were mailed thesurvey with sixty-four campuses responding for a 76% response rate.A large percentage of the campuses (41 %) identified themselves ascommunity colleges (Graph 1) located within 100 miles of the maincampus.Thirty-nine percent of the campuses stated that theaverage age of their students fell within the 27-30 age group(Graph 2).Graph 3 indicates that 40% of the campuses surveyedcharge between 41 and 60 per credit hour.The governing board of the branch campus is the main campus192)

Studentsdid gain some preferential status at the main campus with 47% ofthe campuses indicating an advantage for admittance to redjointlyadmitted at the main and branch campus when taking courses at thebranch campus in 57% of the responses.202.
The typical teaching load for full-time faculty was between 12and 14 credits as identified by Graph 9.Sixteen institutionsidentified their teaching loads as 15 or more credit hours.The institutions indicated a relationship of mutual benefit in60% of the responses, 25% indicated branch campus autonomy, and 15%of the campuses indicated a negative relationship with the maincampus where creativity seems stifled on the branch campus.10Graphidentifies the degrees offered by branch campuses with theAssociate of Arts degree the most common.Graph 11 identifies the titles of the branch campus executiveofficer.The responses were even more varied than the graphindicates as all titles including "Dean" were combined,i.e.,Executive Dean, Dean of the Campus, and Dean of University werecombined in this response.The branch campus CEO reports typically to the Provost andVice President of Academic Affairs at the main campus as indicatedby the responses in the Graph 12.equallydistributedbetweenOther responses were nearlydeans,presidents,directors,chancellors, and vice provosts.The branch campus typically has an administrative council (8%of the campuses did not have a council) with an average of 6councilmembersrepresentingstudents, and program directors.instruction,businessaffairs,The wide range of administrativepositions and areas of representation are identified in Table 1.The autonomy of the branch campus was evident and supported inthe responses related to local control of expenditures (83%), and21ti
most campuses (69%) hire their own faculty.On nearly every campus(97%), faculty at the branch campus receive tenure and in 60% ofthe responses, tenure at the branch campus applies to the maincampus.On most campuses, the branch campus curriculum committeeOn 10 campusesdetermines the programs and courses to be taught.(17%) the main campus determines the curriculum and on 18 campuses(31%) both main and branch campus determine courses and programs.There is evidence of main campus support and assistance in thereceivedresponsesfrombranchperformed at the main campus:72 %; auditcampusesregardingfunctionspersonnel records - 48%; payroll -65%; and student transcripts65%.Also, 57% of thecampuses indicated the endowment at the main campus supported theirfunctions.Table 2 is a consolidation of the responses to the question"If you could improve one main campus-branch campus relationshipissue, what would that be?"One respondent stated, "The acceptanceby the Main Campus that we are a legitimate institution."Thisstatement typified the consolidation of the responses related tothis issue.When asked how to define a branch campus, one respondentThis probably best summarizes the multitudestated "I would not."of answers received from those completing the survey as no commontheme emerged among the respondents.A discussion at a recentnational conference with a branch campus CEO (Dr. Eldon Miller,West Virginia University-Parkersburg) revealed his definition of abranchcampusasahighereducation22center,duetothis
institution's role of offering associate through masters levelprograms as a branch campus.Dr. Miller also stated that no oneunderstood exactly what the term meant, but he was encouraged toprocede because no other definition seemed any more appropriate.Some respondents reflected on the accuracy of the surveyinstrument, both positively and negatively, when asked to commenton the information requested in the survey.Respondents were alsorequested to identify other issues they believed would furtheraddress the relationship between branch and main campus.In sum,the issue of communications and status within the universitystructure is a concern and will probably be an ongoing concern ofbranch campuses.23
ConclusionsThe purposes of this study were three-fold:to re-survey andre-validate Dunlap's 1989 survey of branch campuses, attempting toreach a greater number of campuses; to update and refine a list oftwo-year lower division public institutions La the United Stateswhich are identified as branch campuses of baccalaureate degreegranting institutions.oneDr. Dunlap's survey was mailed to thirty-institutions with twenty-four returns.institutionsidentified bythisresearcherThehaseighty-fourexpanded andcontributed to the research available regarding branch campuses.Furthermore, an extensive list of branch campuses has been compiledto enhance the availability of this resource for future study.Toan undetermined extent, the study identified those institutionswhich are public branch campuses of baccalaureate degree grantinginstitutions.The focus of this study centered on the profile of branchcampuses, i.e., the size, function, role, governance, and servicesof branch campuses.The study also identified a number of concernsfrom the branch campus perspective regarding the relationshipbetween the branch campus and the main campus.Of greatest concernto branch campus CEOs were the issues dealing with respect andsupport, cooperation, and equitable treatment from the main campus.Because only 2% of the respondents stated they wanted to "retainpresent relations," it can be concluded that further research couldbeonducted regarding the cooperative efforts between branch and24
main campus.Many respondents opposed the use of the term "branch" campusand appeared to prefer the terms extended or regional campus inreferencetotheir relationship with the main campus.Oneparticipant at the AACC 73rd Annual Conference expressed concernover the term branch campus because they were a two year lowerdivision campusthe main campus.co-located onidentified one campus as a co-located campus.ThesurveyNonetheless, therelationship issues between branch and main campus seemed to be ofequal concern to the administrator co-located with the main campus.Branch campuses are definitely an anomaly.year associate degrees and more.They offer the twoComparing the branch campus'smission, role, and scope to traditional community, technical, andjunior colleges serves to identify issues of greater differencesthantoidentify commonalities.governancestructure,sourceofThese differencesfunding,existinrecords management,curriculum, and degrees offered.Applications for Further ResearchFrom the results of this survey,there is evidence thatfurther research could be conducted to:1.assess the working relationships between main and strator could be surveyed in relationship to the25
