With 2.6 million students, the state's community colleges have mostly accepted everyone with a California high school diploma. But a new state task force says the emphasis should change from broad access to getting more students to move quickly through the system to get a degree. Critics say that approach will exclude many people who need community college, including recent immigrants and seniors.
