In 2012, MCC conducted the Personal Assessment of the College Environment (PACE) survey in conjunction with the National Initiative for Leadership and Institutional Effectiveness.

The last time this was assessed was in 2012 and was presented during a planned visit from the Office of Civil Rights in December 2013. It is expected that in 2016, the data will be reanalyzed and reviewed and will take into account changes from the 2012 data.
Such items reviewed include Student Ethnicity by Subject, Student Grade Distribution by Ethnicity, Retention Rates by Ethnicity and Four-County Ethnicity Breakdown.
