|a In 1983-84, the Center for the Study of Community Colleges developed and field tested an instrument, the General Academic Assessment (GAA) student survey, to assess community college students' knowledge in several liberal arts areas, including the humanities. The GAA was completed by a sample of 8,024 students at four large, urban community college districts. The scores were cross tabulated by selected student characteristic variables (e.g., age, ethnicity, native language, and reason for attending college) and selected educational background variables (e.g., the number of college units already completed by the student, and the number of humanities courses the student had taken prior to the GAA test). In general, older students scored higher in the humanities than younger students. The native language of the student seemed to be a significant factor, with native English speakers scoring higher than non-native English speakers. Students attending the community college to satisfy a personal interest scored higher in humanities than those attending to advance an occupation or to transfer. There appeared to be a positive correlation between the number of semester hours completed and scores on the humanities section of the GAA, and, not surprisingly, there was a positive correlation between the number of humanities courses taken and the students' GAA humanities scores.
