ST. PETERSBURG COLLEGE
SPC is the oldest 2-year college in Florida:
80 years
Comprehensive Community College
mission
Fall enrollment: 26,165
Annual enrollment: 61,930
BACKGROUND
Unique needs of Pinellas County:
– Employer needs identified for IT managers,
teachers, BSN trained nurses
– Pinellas 67 of 67 counties in Baccalaureate
access
– Geographic uniqueness: a peninsula with
heavy traffic volume
– Need for AS graduates to have a smooth AS
to BAS transfer option
STATE AND FEDERAL
RESPONSE
CCS strategic plan on Baccalaureate access
solutions: branches; partnerships; distance
learning; community colleges directly (Florida
47th, Pinellas 67th among counties)
Two hundred AS programs statewide and only
five AS to Bachelor’s articulation agreements
AS success lowered Bachelor access if no AS to
BAS route
STATE AND FEDERAL
RESPONSE
Legislature chose to also support a few
niche Bachelor’s directly in high need
areas: IT (22,000), Nursing (critical),
Teacher Education (162,000 shortage in
ten years)
SPC CHALLENGE
How to implement Bachelor’s and be true
to historical Community College Mission of
workforce, 2+2, remedial and University
Partnership missions
How to expand the open-door and keep
instruction as a top priority as niche
bachelor degrees are added
How to serve our “community” with 4-year
bachelor’s in high demand areas
KEY TO IMPLEMENTATION
Becoming 4-year across the College e.g.
Institutional Effectiveness, faculty criteria,
student services, library services
SPC’s challenge: become one College, one
faculty, one Curriculum and Instruction
Committee, etc.
Planning funds provided to develop a full upper
division at SPC by the legislature; upper division
to focus on teacher education, BSN nursing and
AS to BAS articulation programs
