The C. E. U. Curriculum: How Can It Fulfill the Needs of Students and Community?
Seegmiller, Jesse F.
This document reports the results of a study conducted by the College of Eastern Utah (CEU) to determine the educational needs and desires of persons within its service area. Data used in this study were obtained by surveying 175 CEU students, 112 area educators, 131 area businesses, and 253 members of the general public. Results indicated that: (1) more than 36% of the general public were interested in taking courses or in a program of study; (2) nearly 40% of the public interested in classes would prefer evening offerings; (3) over 50% of the CEU students were interested in evening classes; (4) over 50% of the businesses interviewed were either involved in employee training or would like their employees trained; (5) area businesses and educators were interested primarily in evening classes; and (6) the greatest interest was in the areas of the humanities and the applied sciences, while the least interest was in the areas of physical education, science and math. Recommendations include the planning and implementation of evening classes, initially on a small level, and vigorous recruiting efforts to ensure appropriate enrollments for evening programs. (JDS)
