I am currently working on a film festival at the college level and a few of us, myself included, are having a problem with render files from color. I brought and entire scene from the movie I am working on into color and adjusted the saturation as well as the luminance on almost all of the clips. Then I rendered the color files and sent them back to final cut pro. When i looked at the sequence in final cut I realized that a few of the shots looked like they had lost some quality or resolution, however; this did not happen to all of the shots that I worked on. It is as through the clips need to be rendered in final cut but there is no render status bar and when I do a render nothing happens. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

DVCPro HD 720p60
frame rate 23.98
we are also having a problem where the last frame of a clip loses its color correction and goes back to its original color when brought into final cut.

Those are two different things.
720/60 is 720/60 at 59.94 frames per second.
720/24 is 720/23.98 at 23.98 frames per second.
It can't be both. You either captured it at 720/24 on the way in or you captured it at 720/60 and then used the Frame Rate Converter to convert the footage.
OR
You captured it at 720/60 and then just placed the footage into a 23.98 timeline which would cause all sorts of issues when you tried the round trip to Color.
