Limitations of Research
This research has several limitations. First, survey questions seven and
eight were unclear about what we meant by being “aware” of campus clubs. A
student that is aware of two clubs may check “very aware,” just as a student
who is aware of a dozen clubs may do the same. Second, in question nine, we
needed to clarify what we meant by “involved on campus.” Someone who spends a
full day on campus going to class, studying, and eating may mark that they are
involved on campus, while someone who participates in multiple clubs may also
do so. Finally, survey questions six, eight, and nine had an option for
students to indicate that this is their first year, rather than answering the
question. However, variances in the survey results show that some students did
not use that option. These factors make analyzing the data complicated.
Report Scope
The scope of our report is limited to the XXX campus and the undergraduate
students that are currently enrolled. This information may apply to other
universities, but the focus of this report is XXX. We examined articles from
other colleges that had similar problems to find correlations between those
schools’ experiences and the observations we have made at XXX.
Organization
First we will present our interview and survey findings regarding the
campus disconnect that stems from ineffective advertising in first-year
housing. We will then discuss the efforts made by other college campuses to
address the problem of the lack of student involvement. Finally, we will offer
conclusions based on our research and make recommendations to help Student
Housing communicate with campus clubs and organizations and increase student
involvement among first-year students.
