Faculty Evaluation Results for Fall 1997


The analysis of the returns from the student evaluation of faculty survey for the fall semester 1997 has been completed. Faculty in Package B in the following Colleges/Schools were scheduled to be rated this semester; Agriculture & Natural Resources, Business Administration, Education, Engineering, Family Studies, Fine Arts, Extended & Continuing Education and the Regional Campuses.

Also included are requested departments/faculty from Package A.

The following tables present the University-wide results of the survey. Based on total student enrollment of the rating package, the student response rate was 67%. The course response rate was 90%. Since the measurement of scales has been expanded from 5 to 10 point scales (1 indicates "Unacceptable" and 10 represents "Outstanding"), direct comparisons between these tables and those prior to fall of 1990 should be avoided.
