The following data depicts Victor Valley College's student statistics for the Summer intercession of 2000. All data
are based upon an overall, unduplicated headcount aggregated on the first day of first census.

the Spring and Fall semesters. The three smallest age groups are 26-30, 51-60 and 60 >. Also of interest,
the average age of students is 31.
Chart 4 depicts that the percentage of males is greater than females for all age groups less than 31 years
