The start of the 2022 - 2023 period continued to be confronted with concerns surrounding a pandemic. To address the admission of new students and the registration of returning students, the administration implemented hybrid measures of safety protocols that included testing for the virus and alternative (hybrid) ways of instructional interaction. The results of testing, showed that there was an escalation at the campus, which was consistent with a regional report issued by the NETHealth Agency for the City of Tyler and surrounding areas. The escalation was also evident with results being a slight decline in enrolment in contrast to the prior year; the reported data evidenced an enrollment drop of 9% (from 737 to 680), with a retention rate of 68%. It should be noted that the drop with enrollment did not affect the fiscal operations of the College because of prudent management and budget planning that proved fiscally sound. The charts graphs in this section reflect enrollment demographics.
