- Assessing Needs of Graduate Students at William Carey College. Diket, Read M. Lockley, Jeannie M. College Programs Educational Facilities Graduate Students Higher Education Needs Assessment Participant Satisfaction Program Evaluation School Schedules Student Attitudes Student College Relationship Surveys Summer 1995 saw an increased enrollment in graduate study at William Carey College (Mississippi) and this rapid growth established a need for student input concerning graduate courses. Graduate staff were largely interested in student satisfaction particularly with course offerings, time and location of offerings, and future interests of students. A survey was given to graduate students at the college in the summer of 1995 to determine if the needs of the students were being met. The survey consisted of 30 questions concerning the graduate program. The survey contained additional questions concerning demographics of those answering the survey. Respondents (N=133) were students in nine graduate classes, randomly selected from the course listings of the main campus and branches. Time of day for course offerings was ranked the highest priority by the graduate students. Students expressed overall satisfaction with the program. Studying in groups with sample questions was seen to be useful advance preparation for comprehensive exams. The students wanted a more updated library facility. The students were not satisfied with the limited offerings for projected class schedules. (Author/JLS)
