Book excerpt: Abstract: The purpose of this ex post facto comparative research study was to measure The University of Mississippi and University of Mississippi Medical Center health science students' satisfaction with and expectation of non-instructional student services. Included in the study were full-time second-year students enrolled in the University's six health science schools during the 2007-2008 academic year: medicine, dentistry, nursing, health related professions, graduate science and pharmacy. The study examined the demographics of school enrollment, gender, and ethnicity to determine if significant differences in response patterns exist for both satisfaction and importance. A secondary product of the study was a series of performance gap scores for each of the non-instructional student services. The difference between the satisfaction score and the importance score for each service was calculated to determine how close students' expectations within each demographic are being realized. The population used in this study consisted of all 540 full-time second-year health science students enrolled at the University of Mississippi or the University of Mississippi Medical Center during the Fall semester of the 2007-08 academic year. A total of 400 students responded to the survey. This resulted in a 74.08% response rate. A census approach was used for collecting the data. Student responses were grouped and statistically evaluated by school, gender and ethnicity. A two-way analysis of variance for unbalanced design, using the General Linear Model procedure from the Statistical Package of the Social Sciences (SPSS) software was implemented to perform all statistical procedures for this study. The .05 level of significance was used to accept or reject the study's six null hypotheses. The study utilized the two dependent variables of satisfaction (with particular student support services) as well as importance (with particular student support services). Each dependent variable had the same set of independent variables: school, gender and ethnicity. To better understand interaction, Duncan's Multiple Range Test was used as a post hoc test. Findings indicate that in terms of student satisfaction, school affiliation is significant while gender and ethnicity is not. In terms of importance, both school affiliation and gender are significant while ethnicity is not. The non-instructional student service with the highest population satisfaction mean was counseling services; student recreation programs and services had the lowest population satisfaction mean. The non-instructional student service with the highest population importance mean was academic advising; student recreation programs and services had the lowest population importance mean. The non-instructional student services that exceeded students' expectation (negative gap score) were counseling services, library resources and services, and technology access and support. The non-instructional student services with the highest gap scores were student financial aid and fee payment procedures.

This book was released on 1989 with total page 154 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this thesis research was to determine selected differences between the older undergraduate student population (25 years and above in age) and the younger undergraduate student population (17 to 24 years of age) enrolled at the College of Saint Teresa. These two groups were compared with respect to the usage of, satisfaction with and perceived need for student personnel and academic support services. The subjects consisted of the entire population, 376 students enrolled at the College of Saint Teresa during the fall semester, 1987. The Supportive Services Survey (Kasworm, 1976) was used to assess the perceptions of need, usage and level of satisfaction of student personnel and academic support services. The survey was mailed to each student. The scored answers for the Supportive Services Survey were recorded on a personal computer using Lotus 1-2-3 software. The data from the research study were evaluated using chi square. This non-parametric statistical procedure examined the association between younger and older students and their usage of, level of satisfaction with and level of need for supportive services. All hypotheses were tested at the .05 level of significance. Because supportive services are a significant element in students' success in higher education, these research findings help pinpoint services which are presently inadequate or which should be created for the older student population. These findings also helped establish the knowledge base for potential planning in relation to the older student.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Boost student success by reversing your perspective on college readiness The national conversation asking "Are students college-ready?" concentrates on numerous factors that are beyond higher education's control. Becoming a Student-Ready College flips the college readiness conversation to provide a new perspective on creating institutional value and facilitating student success. Instead of focusing on student preparedness for college (or lack thereof), this book asks the more pragmatic question of what are colleges and universities doing to prepare for the students who are entering their institutions? What must change in an institution's policies, practices, and culture in order to be student-ready? Clear and concise, this book is packed with insightful discussion and practical strategies for achieving your ambitious student success goals. These ideas for redesigning practices and policies provide more than food for thought—they offer a real-world framework for real institutional change. You'll learn: How educators can acknowledge their own biases and assumptions about underserved students in order to allow for change New ways to advance student learning and success How to develop and value student assets and social capital Strategies and approaches for creating a new student-focused culture of leadership at every level To truly become student-ready, educators must make difficult decisions, face the pressures of accountability, and address their preconceived notions about student success head-on. Becoming a Student-Ready College provides a reality check based on today's higher education environment.
