The 91-item questionnaire covered academic advising and counseling effectiveness; academic services; admissions and financial aid effectiveness; campus climate; campus support services; concern for the individual; instructional effectiveness; registration effectiveness; responsiveness to diverse populations; safety and security; service excellence; and student centeredness. Study findings included the following: (1) 53% of the students agreed or strongly agreed that "most students feel a sense of belonging here"; (2) 41% agreed or strongly agreed that "faculty care about me as an individual," while 33% were neutral about the statement; (3) 36% agreed or strongly agreed that "the quality of the vocational/technical programs are excellent," while 44% were neutral about this statement; (4) 38% agreed or strongly agreed that registration personnel were helpful; (5) 53% agreed or strongly agreed that their academic advisor was "approachable and friendly"; (6) 54% agreed or strongly agreed that "adequate financial aid is available for most students; (7) 61% agreed or strongly agreed that class times were convenient; (8) 60% agreed or strongly agreed that library resources and services were adequate; and (9) 15% or more of the students felt that neither the faculty nor the college cared about them as individuals, that registration personnel were not helpful, that financial aid awards were not announced early enough, that people on campus were not respectful or supportive of each other, and that parking lots and the campus in general were not secure.
