Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Economic activity in the United States continues to be spatially compressed into urban and suburban agglomeration economies. As a result of this spatial compression, rural economies across the United States are experiencing distance-based frictions that put them at a competitive disadvantage with their urban and suburban counterparts. This competitive disadvantage has led to a number of problems in rural communities, such as high unemployment, high poverty, and population loss. Policymakers, researchers, and other stakeholders in rural communities are exploring numerous measures to promote economic development in rural communities. There are many vital components to economic development. Scholars generally agree that adequate levels of local human capital must be in place before regional economic development can occur. Although human capital is widely believed to be a necessary component of economic development, there has been little research that has explored whether or not investments in higher education benefit rural economies and populations. Education in the rural setting is a complex issue. On the one hand, educational investments have the potential improve rural economies by increasing local human capital stock, which in turn leads to greater workforce productivity. On the other hand, without local employment opportunities, education is seen by many to funnel. This research uses two-stage least squares regression (2SLS) and fixed-effects with key slope dummy interaction terms measure whether rural counties with comprehensive community colleges experienced a comparative advantage in job growth, population growth, and poverty compared to counties without. Community colleges are unique as institutions of higher education because they generally provide open-door access to the general population and are designed to meet the needs of local economies. As such, their impact on rural economies should be an issue of public interest. This research finds that rural counties with community colleges have not experienced a discernible benefit in terms of employment growth or population growth in recent time panels and are associated with higher levels of poverty. The implications of these findings raise important questions about the state of rural economies and the ability of community colleges to catalyze economic development and population growth in rural communities.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Co-published with An Agenda for Leaders / A Text for Leadership CoursesWhile community colleges promote American ideals of democracy, opportunity, and social mobility; they provide a vital, accessible, and affordable education for nearly 12 million first-generation, economically-disadvantaged, and minoritized students; are engines of local workforce and economic development; and enroll nearly half of all students who go on to complete a four-year degree; they remain the least resourced and the least funded institutions in the United States.Offering the insights of the former president of Greenfield Community College—located in Massachusetts’s poorest rural county—who was a national leader in community college and higher education organizations as well as closely involved with local businesses and organizations; and commentary and background data provided by Professor of Higher Education and Chair of the Department of Leadership in Education at the University of Massachusetts Boston, this book addresses the challenges that community colleges face as they strive to achieve their complex missions in a changing world.By providing vivid accounts of the diversity of students that community colleges serve, the complexity of their missions—from dual enrollment with high schools, to vocational training, adult education, and transfer to four-year colleges—and the role they play in supporting and responding to the needs of local business, as well in regional economic development, the authors make the case for increased investment, while at the same time making apparent to all stakeholders—from policy makers and trustees to college leaders, faculty and staff—how they can contribute to the vital development of human capacities.Community colleges are open-access, train nearly 80% of all first responders, graduate more than half of new nurses and health-care workers, and have a history of nimbleness and responsiveness to community needs, and can play a vital role in training for tomorrow’s jobs, over 60% of which will, in the next decade, require some college education. The first four chapters set the scene, demonstrating the key foundational linkage between education, community, and democracy, presenting a history of the community college movement, illustrating what’s involved in building strong and reciprocal community relationships, and covering a whole panoply of leadership issues such as governance, institutional culture, facilities planning, resource development, accreditation, and crisis management.The second part of the book presents Bob Pura’s accounts of his visits to five community colleges, each representing different geographic regions, institutional size, urban and rural locations, and how they respond to the varied racial and ethnic populations from they draw their students and establish themselves as anchors in their communities.As well as offering an important message to state and federal policy makers, this book serves as a roadmap for aspiring leaders of community colleges as well as a text for leadership and higher education courses. College leaders may find it useful for internal training and learning community groups.
