Abstract	The College of the Canyons in California has responded to recent growth in the institution and the community it serves by developing new programs and services, adding additional facilities, hiring new personnel, expanding in new directions and developing new initiatives. Enrollment at the college has increased from 6,882 in fall 1996 to 12,726 in fall 2001, an increase of 85%. It is expected to reach 20,000 by 2010. In 1990, 76% of students were white; in 2001, 69% were white. The increase in ethnic minorities is largely due to Pacific Islander and Latino population increases. More than 39% of the area's workers are employed in service occupations, compared with 34% in Los Angeles County. Ethnic minorities now represent 16.8% of faculty, compared with less than 6% in 1996. This document identifies 10 standards by which the college aims to abide: (1) institutional mission, which guides planning efforts; (2) institutional integrity; (3) institutional effectiveness; (4) educational programs; (5) student support and development; (6) information and learning resources; (7) faculty and staff; (8) physical resources; (9) financial resources; and (10) governance and administration. The report includes responses to previous accreditation team recommendations, detailed analyses of the ten standards, and a planning summary. (NB)
