A Study of Institutional Advancement in Selected Southern Baptist Colleges and UniversitiesMelton, Douglas Owen 05 1900 (has links)
The purpose of this study was to determine what institutional advancement processes are currently operating in a sample of Southern Baptist 4-year colleges and universities ("what is") and how these processes compare with Wesley K. Willmer's model of an effective small college institutional advancement program ("what ought to be"). An overview of advancement literature suggested that Willmer had developed the best model of an effective, small college advancement program. Willmer's model consisted of five benchmarks which focused on the following: institutional commitment, authority and organizational structure, personnel resources, advancement activities and functions, and evaluation. Willmer developed the model based on his review of advancement literature and results from a survey he sent to 191 small colleges as part of his 1980 dissertation. The same survey instrument, with slight revisions, was subsequently mailed to more than 650 small colleges over a seven year period and through a series of three studies in 1985, 1989, and 1992.

The impact of institutional core values on traditional students at a Southern Baptist collegeNiemeier, Brian Ashley 17 December 2003 (has links)
This dissertation examined to what degree traditional students were impacted by the institutional core values at a Southern Baptist college. The subjects of mission statements, core values, and college impact were defined. Special attention was given to the eight institutional core values being examined in this study. The current study was conducted at Georgetown College. Located within the eleven state region that is encompassed by the Commission on Colleges of the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools accrediting agency, Georgetown College is a member of the Association of Southern Baptist Colleges and Schools. The goal of Georgetown College, broadly defined, is to provide a quality educational program within the context of a values-based Christian atmosphere. The sample of the current study included all the traditional freshmen, sophomores, juniors, and seniors at Georgetown College at the beginning of the fall semester of 2003.
Data gathering consisted of two concurrent lines of inquiry: similarities and differences in students' agreement with the institutional core values. These lines of inquiry were analyzed according to four specific areas of interest including students' class year, gender, ethnic background, and religious affiliation. A value statement index was created for use in this study.
The core values of community and integrity were rated by the students as the most important values in the study. The Christian core values showed a general increase among almost all of the students from the freshmen to the senior year. The core values concerning diversity and cultural enrichment programs were rated as the least important values in the study. The presence of a Christian community was determined to be the key ingredient for Southern Baptist colleges to impact positively the value systems of their traditional students. / This item is only available to students and faculty of the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary.

A STUDY OF FACTORS THAT PREDICT THE SUCCESS OF CHRIST-CENTERED HIGHER EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTIONS: A MIXED METHOD STUDYSmith, Timothy Lee 12 January 2016 (has links)
A STUDY OF FACTORS THAT PREDICT THE SUCCESS OF CHRIST-CENTERED HIGHER EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTIONS: A MIXED METHOD STUDY
Timothy Lee Smith, Ph.D.
The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary, 2015 Chair: Dr. Michael S. Wilder
Many faith-based academic institutions began to deteriorate in the twentieth century as the institutions wandered toward a secular educational platform. Because of this transition, there is a renewed call for faith-based institutions to move beyond an environment of piety by creating a climate of faith and learning as the foundational synergistic roots in preparing graduates to embrace the cause of Christ.
To address this concern, a sequential transformative mixed methods study was implemented to describe the factors, as expressed by presidents of Christian institutions, which predict the missional success of Southern Baptist Convention liberal arts educational institutions. In addition, this study argued that presidents of Christian institutions can clearly describe the factors of missional success of Christian institutions and a self- assessment model of institutional success can be established from the learned factors.
In stage 1 of the study, 24 presidents of CCCU institutions, but not leaders of SBC schools, agreed to provide factors through an e-Delphi approach that predicted the success of Christ-centered institutions. Ninety factors were gathered during the initial phase of the study. With the completion of two additional rounds of surveys with the same presidents, a group of 56 factors were found important or very important in achieving the success of a Christ-centered institution. These factors were then examined through a
factor analysis statistical process that established 6 clusters. In the second stage of the study, presidents of SBC institutions ranked the factors in each cluster.
The results revealed that the most important cluster that included 5 factors addressed the importance of right Christian persons and explained 66 percent of model. The second cluster contained 19 factors about operational principles of the institution. Both of these clusters explained nearly 80 percent of the model of success.
Results illustrated that presidents can express the factors that predict the success of Christ-centered higher educational institutions. The significance of these findings is the opportunity to examine the historical cases where Christian institutions wandered from their Christian faith and to look forward in using this model in promoting the success of a Christian higher educational institution.
