Abstract | This study examined alumni giving as related to undergraduate involvement, student housing, academic success, and satisfaction with the education received. Two hundred alumni donors from Southern Illinois University at Carbondale's College of Education were surveyed, with a 70% response rate. The study found that alumni donors had not been as involved in extra-curricular activities as non-donors and that on-campus residence halls and community rental units had been the most common housing arrangements, though an unexpectedly high percent of respondents indicated they had lived with their parents or at home and commuted. The study also revealed that alumni donors reported average to above average academic success as undergraduates and were highly satisfied with the education received. Overall, the two factors clearly related to giving were academic achievement and satisfaction with education received. Includes 50 references. (DB) |
