This book identifies four domains of excellence including degree completion, equity, student learning, and labor market success, and describes in detail the policies and practices that have allowed some community colleges to succeed in these domains. By starting with a holistic definition of excellence, measuring success against that definition, and then identifying practices and policies that align with high levels of student success, the author seeks to contribute to the growing body of knowledge about improving student success in community colleges. -- From publisher's website.
