Adaptation to college and Ball State first year students of color : analysis of possible effects on adjustment resulting from the Multicultural Advisor Pilot Program

The purpose of this study was to analyze possible effects of the 1997-1998 Multicultural Advisor Pilot Program which was designed to positively effect the adjustment of students of color to the Ball State University environment. The study utilizes the Student Adaptation to College Questionnaire which examines a student's full-scale adjustment, academic adjustment, social adjustment, personal-emotional adjustment, and attachment/commitment to their education and institution. Results of the study suggest various differences in adjustment to the Ball State University environment do exist between the first-year students of color affected by the program and the first-year students of color who were not involved with the Multicultural Advisor Pilot program. / Department of Secondary, Higher, and Foundations of Education
