Community Colleges Data Collection Information Needs Information Utilization Institutional Research Research Directors Research Needs Research Utilization Small Colleges State Surveys Statistical Data Two Year Colleges Twenty-eight deans of instruction (out of 29 contacted) responded to a survey eliciting information on institutional research at small junior colleges (head-count enrollment of 3,000 or less) in Texas. The survey instrument covered four general questions: (1) is there a systematic on-campus procedure for compiling information; (2) what information is compiled; (3) how is the information used; and (4) who handles this information? Seventy-five percent of respondents indicated having a systematic information gathering procedure. Question two covered 25 categories such as cumulative grade and class attendance reports, contact hours, student characteristics and demography, institutional costs, and faculty activities. All colleges collected information on only three areas--contact hours, student ethnic origins, and sex--while more than half the campuses gathered information on grade reports, full- or part-time status, grade point average summaries, first-time entry status, and library use. All respondents used some data for determining honor student lists and completing required state and federal reports. Only one campus had a research coordinator, and only nine colleges budgeted for institutional research. A copy of the survey instrument with positive answer percentages for respondents is included.
