Andy Reich of McClanahan & Holmes, reported on the audit of college records for 2005-2006 and told the board that there are no material findings in the financial records of the institution. "We have given you a clean opinion," he said. PJC President Dr. Pamela Anglin presented an enrollment analysis of students attending the three college campuses. The report reveals that over 41 percent, or 1,773 of this fall's student population of 4,309 are full-time, while 58.9 percent, or 2,536, are considered part-time students. Full-time means a student is enrolled in 12 or more credit hours. The report also indicated that 707 students reside in–district, while 3,407 live out-of-district. Another 84 students are from outside Texas. PJC also has 782 high school students in the service area enrolled in dual-credit college courses. In other business, regents tabled an easement request on college land from Sulphur Springs Hopkins County Economic Development Corporation pending a survey of the property.
