Organizational Structure and Resources of Alumni Associations at Public Senior Universities in the Southeastern United StatesPlummer, Robert M 01 August 2014 (has links)
The purpose of the quantitative study was to analyze the staffing patterns, organizational structures, funding resources, practice of resource allocation, technology use, size of alumni population, size of institution enrollment, and age of the institutions at senior public colleges and universities in the southeastern United States. These institutions were derived from the membership of the Council for Advancement and Support of Education [CASE] during the academic years 2010-2012 in the United States District III region, generally the Southeast to lower Mid-Atlantic states. The study was further limited to public, comprehensive institutions as determined by the Carnegie Classification system. Data were collected through an online internet survey to test 11 research questions and gather demographic information relevant to the study. Of the 100 potential institutions for response, 16 completed surveys were received. The overall results of the tests reflect that 3 of the 11 results were statistically significant. Specifically, resource allocation scores were significantly higher than funding resource scores. Also there were strong positive correlations between technology use and age of institution and between size of alumni and the size of the institution.

Rural community college fundraising : a multi-site case study exploring the characteristics and motivations of alumni supportersWood, Jason S. 26 June 2014 (has links)
Fundraising in the 21st century is becoming an increasingly important component of rural community colleges' (RCCs) overall funding strategies. Alumni represent a significant population of potential college supporters. The problem facing rural community colleges involves fiscal viability through developing innovative fundraising practices and identifying emerging sources of additional revenue. The purpose of this study is to describe the characteristics and motivations of RCC alumni who are likely to contribute financial support to the institution. The significance of fundraising in RCCs is explored. Rationales, strategies, and key terms are identified from the literature. A review of the literature related to fundraising in RCCs provides context for the topic. A qualitative research design using a case study method was used to answer the research questions. The analysis of data is presented and recommendations for future research are discussed. / Graduation date: 2013 / Access restricted to the OSU Community at author's request from June 26, 2012 - June 26, 2014

Cross-cultural program evaluation of Nepali architecture course through qualitative research of alumni.Treese, Donn. January 2009 (has links)
This dissertation uses qualitative research methodology (individual interviews with
alumni of three separate graduating classes) as a means of evaluating the effectiveness of an
architecture program at a private engineering college located just outside the city limits of
Kathmandu, Nepal. Cross-cultural issues were an important aspect of the research as the
researcher (a former teacher at the college) is an American while all the students were from
Nepal. All interviews were transcribed and the data collected was analyzed primarily using the
Constant Comparison/Grounded Theory approach. Triangulation of data from different
individuals helped to verify observations and solidify conclusions. The presentation of the
research retains individual anonymity of the subjects within the framework that they were all
students of architecture in the Department of Architecture at Nepal Engineering College in
Bhaktapur, Nepal. Effort was made to explain the epistemological position of the author and
comments are included describing possible bias in various stages of the research and analysis
process. The findings indicate a high level of success by the graduates of the program, especially in the early years of its existence. Graduates from more recent years describe less satisfaction with their architecture training. The findings from the research lead to specific suggestions for changes/improvements in the architecture program at Nepal Engineering College. / Department of Educational Studies

Motivations and Experiences of Elected Governing Council MembersKanga Fonseca, Renu 29 November 2011 (has links)
This qualitative study explores the motivations and experiences of individuals elected to serve on the Governing Council of the University of Toronto. Elected governors include alumni, students, staff and faculty. Six semi-structured interviews were conducted with 2 alumni governors, 2 student governors, and 2 staff/faculty governors. Interview questions helped to examine personal motivations behind serving in university governance, activities and duties of governors, self-perceptions of effectiveness and improvements to the experience of elected members. The responses were used to create interview summaries and discover common themes in the experiences of elected governors. Four theme areas emerged. They are (1) initial motivations, (2) learning and informal communication, (3) personal benefits, pride and positive experience, and (4) approach to governance. This study includes a discussion of the unique position of alumni governors and suggests improvements to the governor experience as recommended by the research participants.
