Student Equity Data
The data presented on this page helps identify disproportionate impact (DI) at Las Positas College as part of the 2025-2028 Student Equity Plan (SEP). The goal is to foster campus-wide dialogue and support efforts to remove barriers to student success. Based on these insights, the college develops targeted strategies to close achievement gaps and promote equity.
The California Community Colleges Chancellor’s Office provides disaggregated data across multiple student demographics, including gender, race/ethnicity, foster youth status, veteran status, income level, disability status, first-generation status, LGBT status, and economic disadvantage.
Five key metrics are used to assess disproportionate impact:
- Access – Successful enrollment in the first year
- Persistence – Retention from the first primary term to the subsequent primary term
- Transfer Math & English – Completion of transfer-level math and English in the first year
- Completion – Achievement of the Vision for Success definition of completion within three years
- Transfer Completion – Transfer to a four-year institution within three years
