INTRODUCTION
This is the ninth in a series of annual academic reports published
by the Office of the Vice President for Academic Affairs. The purpose of
these reports is to provide information about various facets of the college
that would be of interest to those concerned with its development. In
addition they will contain up-to-·date information that will be of value in
preparing reports for various agencies and groups in the future.
Edinboro State College was established primarily to serve the Northwestern
Pennsylvania region. However, students now come from all com1ties of the
state as well as from other states. The College has grown in both faculty
and students over the past five years. As of the Fall of 1977, the College
enrolled 6253 students and employed 474 professional staff members.
Edinboro has become a multi-purpose institution of higher learning
serving the educational needs of Northwestern Pennsylvania, the Co11DDOnwealth,
and the nation. The College operates an off-campus center in Warren,
Pennsylvania, making higher educational opportunity available to a larger
number of students. Programs in elementary and secondary education, and in
the arts, humanities, and sciences curricula are available at this center.
After two years, students may transfer to the ma.in campus.
The College is organized into 4 branches: Academic Affairs, College
Development, Student Personnel Services, and Support Services. Presently
the College has six schools: The School of Arts and Humanities, the School
of Behavioral and Social Sciences, the School of Education, the School of
Nursing, the School of Science and Mathematics, and the School of Graduate
Studies.

*Although the College is approved to offer the following degrees: BA Economics/
General Business, BA Economics/Accounting, : BA Criminal Justice, and BS Social Work,
a number of students are taking concentrations in these areas under the Social Sciences
designation. It is anticipated that most of these students will exercise the option
to change their curriculums from Social Sciences to one of the above degrees during
the next two academic years. This accounts, in part, for the significant decr~se shown
in Social Sciences and increases shown for Business and Management and Public Affairs.
#Includes students in Connnunication and Sensory Disorders and Mentally and
Physically Handicapped.
##Some upper division students are pursuing this degree.

*Transfer students are included in the number graduating in various curricula. However, data on entering
students does not include transfers. In addition, some students were graduated in curricula that were
different from those in which they were originally enrolled due to internal transfer. Internal and external
transfers, in some cases, would make it appear that a greater number was graduated from a program than was
initially admitted.

INTRODUCTION
For several years Edinboro State College has conducted orientation
activities for freshmen well in advance of their registration at the
college. These activities are completed in a one-day program. The
morning portion of the program is conducted by Student Personnel Services
and responsibility for the afternoon is assumed by the Academic Affairs
Branch. Planning for the total day has been coordinated in such a way
that the experience is an integrated one for students and parents.
Orientations are conducted in October, April, May, and June. The
major purpose in conducting these so far in advance of actual enrollment
is to "cl1.nch" the student or to obtain a conmitment to Edinboro State
College. It is believed that many students applying to this college are
multiple-applicants who are in the process of deciding from among several
colleges.
Over the years, there has been a continuing effort to improve upon
the program and services rendered. Follow-up studies have been conducted
ci.f students and parents who have attended, and the evaluations have been
highly positive.
A paper was prepared which explained the General Education requirements
of the college in highly specific terms, and space was provided on this
sheet for the student to make a copy of his course requests. Each student
was asked to take this document home with him, so that he could study it
at his leisure and obtain more background concerning college requirements.
In an attempt to provide for greater individualization, students were
given an examination that would be useful in placement in the proper
section of freshman1 English. Placement in the course Developmental Reading
and Study Skills will be based upon student performance on the verbal part
of the SAT.
For several years the Spring orientations have been conducted late in
April and early in May over a period of ten days. Attendance at these
activities until 1975 was reasonably high. At that time percentage of
attendance declined. Thus, it was decided to reduce the number of orientation
days from ten to six in order to more effectively utilize personnel and
facilities.
:.



Procedures were followed for the current orientation that had been
established over the years. During the period April 4 - 6, students were
mailed a letter of invitation, a campus map, and information concerning
the day they were to report to the College. Thus, students and parents
received notification in sufficient time to plan for this activity.

ACADEMIC AFFAIRS ORIENTATION AND SCHEDULING
Students were invited to the college according to the curricula in which
they planned to major. The program began at 1:30 p.m. with welcoming remarks
by Dr. Fisher. He discussed Edinboro State College's general education requirements,
physical facilities, faculty qualifications, the advisory program, the tutoring
program, and change of curriculum procedures.
Following the above, which lasted from 1:30-2:00 p.m. the students were
divided into smaller groups to meet with faculty members from the departments in
which they planned to major. A departmental orientation was conducted and tentative
schedules were prepared for students, which were returned to Dr. Fisher. Most
students and their parents completed. the afternoon portion of the program by
3:00 p.m. Several students reported to the college on a day they were not scheduled.
In such cases, Dr. Fisher oriented the students and prepared handwritten schedules.
STUDENT AFFAIRS ORIENTATION AND INFORMATION SERVICES
One of the outstanding new features of the spring and summer orientation programs
consisted of a recently produced promotional film entitled "Edinboro: A Student
Notebook", created by Mr. David Weinkauf of the Edinboro State College Film Unit.
With a running time of twenty minutes, this film very imaginatively presents the
viewer with an authentic insight to the motivation and perceptions of three
Edinboro students, in terms of their view of the college and their relationship
to it. From the comments made, and from our observations, it was rather clear that
this film production met its objective -- to project the viewer into the role of
the student assessing the quality of the Edinboro experience. The remainder of
the program offered by Student Affairs was essentially the same time-tested
formula that has proved to be sucessful in recent years. In order to carry it out,
some of the staff generously consented to taking a brief interlude from their vacations.
The library staff again provided tours of that facility for the parents of our
prospective freshmen and thanks to the efforts of SGA, there was an ample supply
of student help to carry out the hospitality and reception functions at Van Houten
Dining Hall.
As indicated elsewhere in this report attendance during the spring and sunnner
programs reflected a significant upturn in participation. However, numbers were
not the only measure of change -- audience response seemed to be more spontaneous,
enthusiastic and inner-motived. There were noticeable variations in the rate of
attendance on each of the days -- a variance that continues to elude our ability to
accotmt for it, in spite of the variables which lend themselves to conjecture and
speculation. Soon after registration figures are completed for this fall's entering
class (September 1978), an effort will be shared by Dr. Fisher and Dr. Roberts to
ascertain the extent to which attendance at orientation and eventual enrollment at
Edinboro are associated. Perhaps, this will shed some light on the value or utility
of the extensive effort that goes into preparation and execution of our orientation
progr~m.

The sarne procedures were followed for the June, 1973 orientation as
i.lad been the case in April and 'fay, 1978. Last yaar two day3 were allocated
for this activity and it appear~d this would be sufficient a 6 ain. Students
wbo h .~d not attended previous orientations in tile Fall of 1977 and in the
Spring of 1973 were invited as well as those wl10 nad been acccpt~d since tne
Spring Orientation had been held. Traditionally the nuuber of students who
attend the June 0rientation ~1as not been large. It is tr1ou 6 ht that t~1ose
wl10 did not attend previous orientations would not be likely to at t~nd t :lis
one either. Jti1er factors such as s1.llilmer jobs, vacrition plans, etc. make
it less likely t ~1at students will att~nd this ;>articular orientation.

SUMMARY

It appears that the format developed for freshman orientation and scheduling
over the past several years is basically very sound. The program proceeds
smoothly each day with few apparent problems developing. The one-day format
necessitates that students and parents rise early in order to arrive at the
College in time for the program. However, most of these individuals are on their
way home by or shortly after 3:00 P.M. In spite of the early hour that many
individuals had to rise, few appeared to be tired or drowsey during the program.
Perhaps this speaks well for the interest the morning and afternoon sections
of the program have for students and parents. It is noted that many parents,
upon leaving the afternoon program, inquire as to where they may pay the $100
deposit or ask for the location of the Financial Aid Office. These are
indicators of a positive nature concerning the program.
Over the years the only negative factor has been the general decline
in the percentage of attendance. Many factors could have a bearing on this.
Several follow-up studies have been conducted of non-attendees and such a
variety of response has been obtained that no clear pattern emerges from those
who have not attended these sessions. Many are aware that it is no longer
as difficult to be admitted to the college of their choice as it was in the
late 1960's and early 1970's. This had been brought forth in terms of the number
of students attending Edinboro's orientations who have also been accepted at
one, two, or more other higher educational institutions in the region. The
latter may well be the most compelling reason for continuing the program.
Follow-up studies have shown that, for the most part, students and parents attending
Edinboro's orientations receive a most favorable impression of the College.
This program could be a strong factor in the selection of Edinboro State College
as their final choice. The trend of decreasing percentage of attendance might
be showing signs of reversing itself. It is worth noting that the Spring
attendance for 1977 was 53% as contrasted to that in 1978 of 65.3%. This
represents a significant increase in the percentage of those attending.
Constant attemps are made to improve the program. This year labels
containing the SAT scores and rank in high school class were placed on each of
the student schedule sheets. It is thought that this type of information would
be immediately useful to faculty advisors as they helped students prepare
requested Fall schedules. Schedule sheets of those students who did not attend
the orientation sessions were given to appropriate school deans with a request
that follow-up be conducted of these individuals. It is possible that
non-attendance at orientation might be an indicator of lack of commitment to
attend the College. Follow-up actions by deans and department chairpersons might
help to persuade such individuals that Edinboro State College would be their
best choice of a higher educational institution.
In the future, department chairpersons will be encouraged to conduct a
part of the orientation at the physical location of their departments. It
is believed that this will provide prospective students and their parents
with greater knowledge about the equipment" and facilities available as well as
to provide for more interaction with faculty and undergraduate students. Such
interactions should help to increase the connnitment of prospective students to
attend Edinboro State College.

THE ADVISORY PROGRAM

Undergraduate
n1e role of the adviser focuses primarily on academic planning. It also
involves a relationship with the student that encompasses the full range of
adjustment to the College. One should not underestimate the full importance of
the adviser/advisee relationship in the integration of the student into the
college scene. The higher the degree of integration of the individual into
the college systems, the greater will be his/her commitment to the goal of college
completion and to the specific institution. The interplay between the individual's
commitment to the institution determines whether or not he decides to drop out
of college. The adviser should be a concerned and interested human being who
provides a personal link with the College. The faculty adviser may, for some
students, be the only college official who knows him/her by name and responds
to him on a personal basis.
The student has a definite responsibility to be aware of his credit needs
for graduation. Because it is ultimately the student's responsibility to choose
his courses of study, the adviser should recognize the importance of his
conmitment when assisting the student in making appropriate choices.
~dinboro State College believes that faculty advisers are generally best
qualified to provide academic advice for the student. The advisement program,
coordinated and supervised by the Academic Affairs Office, provides each student
with an academic adviser. The student is assigned an adviser according to
guidelines established by the various department chairpersons.

The new student is noti-f ied of his/her advisor assignment by mail prior ro
registration day. The name of the faculty adviser is also printed on his/her
first printed class schedule. In some cases, a folder is forwarded to the faculty
adviser. This folder includes SAT scores, high school class standing, an evaluation
sheet showing courses taken, and the grade point average. Most often,however,
the adviser is expected to start a folder for the student. The faculty adviser
retains a copy of each proposed schedule prepared during pre-registration. Likewise,
periodic grade reports and cumulative academic histories, are filed in the student
folder.
The adviser is expected to post a schedule of his/her office hours on his/her
office door. During pre-registration periods (usually two weeks duration) the
advisee must make an appointment with his/her adviser for the purpose of advisement
and scheduling. The adviser will have a computerized copy of the student's
cumulative academic record. The faculty adviser and advisee are encouraged to review
academic progress and to select appropriate courses for the forthcoming semester.
The faculty adviser, when providing academic and personal advisement, may
occasionally encounter situations which are beyond his expertise. If assistance is
needed, the adviser contacts ~is/her department chairperson, dean, or the Office of
the Vice President for Academic Affairs.

ANNUAL REPORT
1977-1978

INSTITIJTE FOR COMMUNITY SERVICES
EDINBORO STATE COLLEGE
EDINBORO, PENNSYLVANIA

85

ANNUAL REPORT
The Institute for Community Services, Edinboro State College, was
founded in 1970 as an adjunct to the Department of Political Science and
was originally known as the Bureau of Government Services. As such it
assisted local government in Northwestern Pennsylvania in many of its needs
and activities. In 1974, the name was changed to its present designation
to more appropriately reflect the overall activities of the agency.
For the 1977-78 year (July 1, 1977-June 30, 1978) these activities
fall into six (6) categories:
1. , Programs conducted under terms of the Title I, HEA, grant for
Consumer Education and Information.
2.

Completion of the Pennsylvania Department of Agriculture contract.

3.

Completion of the Edinboro, Pennsylvania, long-range plan.

4.

Publication of two newsletters.

5.

Operation of three statewide-regional conferences.

6.

Operation of the Political Science-Criminal Justice Program.

Title I, Higher Education Act Grant
A significant portion of the 1977-78 activities were devoted to carrying
out the terms of the Title I, HEA grant. This grant called for a number of
seminars, workshops and conferences in the area of consumer education,
information and protection, together with operation of the Institute Speakers'
Bureau.
In all 53 seminars were conducted by the Institute, 47 of these for
Erie County, Pennsylvania, senior citizens and partially funded by a separate
small grant from the Greater Erie Community Action Agency. The remaining
six seminars were conducted for representatives of GECAC divisions. These
seminars serviced 1,936 people, total.
Twelve workshops were conducted in Edinboro, York and Reading, Pennsylvania. These included programs on Food, State and Local Taxation, Health
Services, Public Utilities, Advertising, Education and the School System,
and the Law-all relevant to consumer issues and affairs. The workshops
serviced an additional 518 persons.

86

The third aspect of this project dealt with three statewide-regional
conferences conducted by the Institute. These were the Pennsylvania
Consumers Telecommunications Conference, partially funded through a separate
grant from the Bell Telephone Company of Pennsylvania; the Future of Rural
Pennsylvania, Northeast and Appalachian ·Regions Conference, partially
funded through a small grant from the Appalachian Region Development Division,
Pennsylvania Department of Commerce; and the Eastern Consumer Conference.
In all, these conferences attracted 385 consumer, community, government,
industry and educational leaders from Pennsylvania and sixteen other states.
A further aspect of this program was its work with high school students,
where the Institute serviced almost 300 students through presentations on
consumer affairs.
Finally, the Institute provided service to a large number of groups,
agencies and organizations through the Speakers' Bureau. Institute staff
members gave 54 additional speeches through the Bureau, servicing 4,053
people throughout the Commonwealth and beyond.

Pennsylvania Department of Agriculture Grant
The terms of this grant concluded October 31, 1977, with most requirements completed. Originally scheduled to run until June 30, 1978, the
Department elected to terminate the contract eight months early.
During the contract period the Institute was involved in long-term
research on producer-to-consumer marketing, compiling a comprehensive
compilation of organizational requirements for community food-buying clubs,
and the structuring of the Edinboro Community Foods buying club as a pilot
project. The role of Edinboro State College in this project undertaking
has been recognized by the Council of State Governments in a recent publication on alternative marketing systems.

Borough of Edinboro Contract
In 1976, the Institute contracted with the Borough of Edinboro to complete
a long-range plan for the community. Work began early in 1976 and was completed early this past spring. This was the second major project the Institute
has completed for the Borough and is evidence of the value of such. an agency
as the Institute. It is estimated that Borough taxpayers have been saved
approximately 3 mills of taxation through the codification and long-range
plan contracts with the Institute.

Publications
The Institute publishes two newsletters monthly, one .the Northwest
Consumer Forum, and a second one, Regional Public Affairs. The first goes

to over 4,000 persons, mainly in Northwest Pennsylvania (and continually
growing); the latter pertains to local government issues and goes to each

governmental unit in the eight-county Northwest Pennsylvania region.

Interns.h ips
Ever since public service internships have been made available at
Edinboro the program has been operated by the staff of the Institute. This
program is now six years old and in 1977 added internship placements for
the Criminal Justice Program to its responsibilities. At the present time
the Institute is placing approximately 50 interns per year in various public
and private nonprofit agencies.

Through its efforts in working with industry and business, community and
government organizations and agencies and interested individuals, the
Institute raised a total of $56,016.53 during 1977-78, $6,600 of which was
for its consumer scholarship fund to which 29 individuals, agencies and
companies contributed. The remaining funds were raised through separate
contracts.
The staff of the Institute for Community Services believes the past year
has been a most productive one. Its programs have reached over 13,000
residents not including television and radio programs. Our work is recognized nationally as a leading institution of higher education where consumer
affairs projects are conducted. The Institute is recognized by major businesses and industries as a responsible and productive agency as shown
through contributions to the Institute Consumer Scholarship Fund.
Through these efforts Edinboro State College has provided services to
countless thousands of Pennsylvania residents at a minimum of cost •
