I believe we already have a policy regarding extension efforts at community colleges, and its to not do them. This is due to the difficulty of getting such groups to get established and stay established, with the shorter degree programs. Some larger community colleges are changing into four-year colleges (I know of 2 in my state), and on those we would permit it. But AFAIK, we wouldn't approve an effort at a junior or community college.

Well, I don't think we have a policy against community colleges given that we currently have a Petitioning Group at Tarrant County College-Southeast. Tarrant County College-Southeast (and indeed the entire Tarrant County system) only awards Associate Degrees. (http://www.tccd.edu/programs/default.asp)

Note, we currently have inactive chapters at two of the other campuses (also two year) of Tarrant County College
