[COPLAC-IR] NSSE Cycle

[Zobel,Emily J]

Hi Nancy et. al,

University of Wisconsin-Superior is on a three-year cycle.  We are part of the University of Wisconsin – System, and we follow the schedule put forth by our leaders at system so all institutions participate at the same time.  This has not posed a problem for us.  We were part of the 2014 NSSE administration.

Thanks,
Emily

Nancy –

Keene State College adopted the two-year NSSE cycle to participate with COPLAC. I personally think that a three-year cycle makes more sense. However, we can’t do that. Because we were already on a two-year cycle with COPLAC, our trustees now require that we (and all institutions in our system) report NSSE results every two years. So even if the COPLAC cycle were to change, we would still be locked into a two-year pattern.

Everyone,
My institution, the University of Minnesota, Morris, is thinking of going from a 2-year cycle of conducting NSSE (every other year, even years) to a 3-year cycle.  We would do the CIRP survey of entering freshmen in fall semester of the same year we do NSSE in the spring.  That way we would expect to catch those entering freshmen who did CIRP as they are in their senior year for NSSE.
My questions are:
1) What cycle are you using for the NSSE survey (if any cycle at all)?
2) Would you consider moving to a 3-year cycle (beginning spring 2017) or a cycle that would include the same years as UMM?  (For instance, if you offer it every spring, we are covered!)
Thanks.
Nancy Helsper
