Abstract | LaGuardia Community College (LCC) awarded associate degrees to 902 graduates in the class of 1981, an increase of 78 graduates from 1980. Each graduate was mailed a questionnaire shortly after graduation, requesting information on employment, salaries, and transfer to senior institutions. Responses from 618 (68.5%) of the graduates revealed: (1) between 1980 and 1981, there were increases in the number of graduates from the data processing (+40%), liberal arts (+27%), and business administration (+14%) programs, and decreases in the occupational therapy (-31%) and secretarial science (-12.9%) programs; (2) the transfer rate to senior colleges dropped from 62.8% in 1980 to 57.5% in 1981; (3) banking, law firms, and insurance companies attracted the largest number of graduates; (3) the average salary of a 1981 LCC graduate was $12,185, representing a 5.2% increase from 1980; and (4) LCC graduates had starting salaries an average of 7.8% higher than those of other two-year college graduates in the Middle Atlantic area.
