The Northwest Corner Of Heaven: A History Of Cascade College, Gary L. Tandy

Faculty Publications - Department of English

This is not a history that I wanted to write—at least not yet. When I moved my family to Portland in the summer of 1994 to become a charter faculty member of Cascade College, the future looked bright. After the closure of Columbia Christian College in 1993, much excitement had been generated among Northwest supporters of Christian education when Oklahoma Christian University agreed to lend its accreditation to a branch campus to operate on the site of the former college.

As one of the “pioneer” faculty members, I was encouraged by the support expressed for the college by the church …

Measuring Spiritual Transformation For The Purpose Of Continuous Quality Improvement, Brent D. Maher

Master of Arts in Higher Education (MAHE) Theses

Christian colleges seek to form the spiritual lives of students through academic and co-curricular programming. These institutions need assessment measures that will assess student achievement of their spiritual outcomes and help improve their spiritual environment and programs. This study investigated the viability of the Furnishing the Soul Inventory (FSI) as an instrument for spiritual outcomes assessment by researching the FSI's ability to detect differences in students' spiritual maturity based upon mentoring, crisis, and cross-cultural mission trip experiences. The FSI was administered to 156 students at Taylor University, a small liberal arts college in the Midwest. The results of this study …

Teacher-To-Parent Communication: What Parents Want From Alternative Educators, Shelley A. Hoogers

Master of Education Program Theses

This study was conducted to determine teacher-to-parent communication preferences among parents of students, grades 9-12, attending a rural Iowa alternative education program. Thirty-seven parents were chosen to participate in the study. Twenty volunteered to complete the Parent Communication Survey (PCS). Data analysis of the PCS indicated most parents preferred regular progress updates to be sent bi-weekly via U.S. mail. Parents preferred that teachers contact them about more specific issues via phone call home. Over half of parents surveyed said they would read a classroom newsletter and website. An analysis of parent comments yielded four themes: honesty, timeliness, sensitivity, and partnership. …
