Kohlberg And Fowler: Two Models For Considering The Moral Progress Of College Students, Tim Herrmann

Growth: The Journal of the Association for Christians in Student Development

Fostering moral development has been an important goal of American higher education throughout its history. This goal has become especially prominent in light of recent developments related to crime, ethical indifference and deteriorating social structures. This topic is of particular relevance to faith-based institutions as the fostering of moral development is vitally related to their collective mission and purposes.

The literature of moral development contains a number of prominent and plausible theoretical approaches. However, two of the most prominent and highly developed are, Lawrence Kohlberg’s theory of moral judgment development and James Fowler’s theory of faith development. Each of these …

Assessing Spiritual Development In Business Students: Lessons Learned And A Suggested Process, Monty Lynn, Tim C. Coburn, J. Vincent Swinney, Michael Winegeart

Growth: The Journal of the Association for Christians in Student Development

As Christian higher education institutions increasingly engage in continuous quality improvement and outcome measurement, research on spiritual development is filtering down to undergraduate business programs. This paper presents lessons learned from a pilot cross-sectional survey of Abilene Christian University undergraduate business students who completed the Faith Maturity Scale (Benson, Donahue & Erickson, 1993) and responded to other questions about faith development. Based on the results, a number of helpful observations were made for the ACU business program. A method and process for assessing spiritual development at multiple Christian colleges is proposed.

A Study Of The Leadership Preparedness Of U.S. Public University Chief Business Officers, Daniel J. Hurley

Dissertations

Despite the enormous role that Chief Business Officers (CBOs) play in administering the business and financial affairs of American public universities, little research has been conducted on their leadership preparedness. The primary objectives of this study were to assess the self-perceived preparedness of U.S. public university CBOs at the time they assumed their first position in the role, and to determine if specific factors could be associated with their overall preparedness.

With support from the National Association of College and University Business Officers, a survey was developed and mailed to the entire population of CBOs at four-year public universities in …

All-Inclusive List of Electronic Theses and Dissertations

The purpose of this longitudinal study was to examine the effects of a mentoring intervention program on retention and grade point average of students at a two-year community college. A specific goal was to determine the group of at-risk students, identified by the College Student Inventory's Dropout Proneness Score, that would benefit the most from a mentoring intervention. The mentoring intervention was part of a retention management system called New Dimensions on the Ivy Tech State CollegeCentral Indiana Region campus. Incoming students take the Assessment of Student for Successful Entry and Transfer test and are placed in developmental courses if …

Implementation Of A Community College Partnership In Indiana: Faculty Perceptions Regarding Change, Jeff L. Pittman

All-Inclusive List of Electronic Theses and Dissertations

Within American higher education, the practice of establishing partnerships between institutions is becoming more common. Arrangements such as consortiums, mergers, joint ventures, and consolidations have aligned several institutions in the past, and will continue to do so in the future. In Indiana, a legislated partnership between the state's two-year institutions has recently been formed for the purpose of better serving the citizens of the state. Although states are increasingly utilizing mandated partnerships to meet specific strategic higher education ends, research to inform and guide these kinds of initiatives is limited. Furthermore, studies of certain categories of mandated partnerships, such as …

Seeking Community: Creating Effective Lifestyle Agreements, Steven P. Bird

Growth: The Journal of the Association for Christians in Student Development

Christian colleges wrestle with the creation and maintenance of regulations for correct behavior of campus members (lifestyle agreements). Using theoretical considerations as well as specific application examples, a way is presented to create a lifestyle agreement that is internally consistent and fits the needs of the campus. Specifically, the effect of external constituencies, organizational efficiency, and, most importantly, efforts to develop community, are used to guide the construction of lifestyle agreements. While very specific examples are given, no effort is made to create a one-size-fits-all set of codes. Instead, a framework is constructed to allow a campus to develop a …

Commonality & Diversity, Donna Thoennes

Growth: The Journal of the Association for Christians in Student Development

As students are increasingly influenced by postmodern thought, which promotes ideas of community without a common center and emphasizes difference, so students may have fresh conceptualizations of what community is and how it functions. This study explored students' conceptions, experiences, and ideals of community.

The tension between commonality and diversity within community has caused much debate in the social sciences. Interviewees, who were students at member institutions of the CCCU, recognize the same tension and often struggle to navigate their relationships within a collegiate environment that promotes both.

Thirty undergraduate senior students at two Christian colleges were interviewed in February …

Mutual Expectations: The Relationship Of The President To The Student Personnel Officer, David Mckenna, Steve Moore

Growth: The Journal of the Association for Christians in Student Development

This article is a transcription of an address presented by Dr. David McKenna at a recent pre-conference workshop at an ACPA conference. The workshop was sponsored by ACSD in conjunction with the annual prayer breakfast. Dr. McKenna shared insights gleaned from his more than thirty years of service in Christian higher education including three presidential posts. The article focuses on two areas. They are one, what a president expects from a senior student affairs officer and two, what the SSA can expect from a president.
