INTRODUCTION
This is the tenth 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 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
counties of the state as well as from other states. As of the Fall of 1978, the
College enrolled 5698 students and employed 468 professional staff members.
The College is a multi-purpose institution of higher learning serving the
educational 'needs of Northwestern Pennsylvania, the Commonwealth, and the nation.
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.

*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,

A REPORT ON THE ORIENTATION AND SCHEDULING OF FRESHMEN ENTERING
EDINBORO STATE COLLEGE IN 1979
Conducted:

October 26 and 27, 1978
May 1, 2, 3, 8, 9, and 10, 1979
June 19 and 20, 1979
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. The format and procedures followed
for the orientations conducted in 1978 and 1979 followed those of previous
years very closely, more detailed information is available in previous reports
of this activity.
Orientations are conducted in October, May, and June. The major purpose
in conducting these so far in advance of actual enrollment is to "clinch"
the student or to obtain a commitment 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 of 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
freshman English. Placement in the course Developmental Reading and Study Skills
will be based upon student performance on the verbal part of the SAT.
Procedures were followed for the current orientation that has been established
over the years. Students were sent a letter of invitation, a campus map, and
information concerning the day they were to report to the College
approximately
two-three weeks in advance of their orientation reporting date. Thus, students
and parents received notification in sufficient time to plan for this activity.

Students who had not attended previous orientations held in October, 1978
and May, 1979 were invited to attend the June orientation. In addition,
students who had been accepted since invitations had been issued to the May
orientation were invited to attend. Traditionally the number of students
attending the June orientations has not been large. It is thought that those
who did not attend previous orientations would not be likely to attend this
one either. Other factors such as summer jobs, vacation plans, etc. make it
less likely that students would attend this particular orientation.
Thus, percentage of attendance was not computed.

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.
An interesting trend was noted in that a number of students attended the
orientatiohs who has not yet made application for admission to Edinboro State
College. '

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 has 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%
and in 1979 it was 72%. This represents a significant and encouraging increase
in the percentage of those attending.
Constant attempts are made to improve the program. Names, addresses, and
telephone numbers 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.
Department chairpersons were encouraged to conduct a part of the afternoon
orientation at the physical location of their departments. It is believed that
this provides 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 interest of prospective students in Edinboro State College.

In some cases the number of acceptances exceed the number of applications for
a given curriculum. This is due to a backlog of applications from the previous

'IHE ADVISORY PIOGRAM

Undergraduate
'lbe role of the adviser focuses primarily on academic planning. It also
involves a relationship with the student that encx:npasses the full range of
adjust:Itent to the College. One should not underestimate the full inportanoe of
the adviser/advisee relationship in the integration of the student into the
oollege scene. 'Ihe higher the degree of integration of the iixlividual into
the college system;, the greater will be his/her ccmnitirent to the goal of oollege
carpletion and to the specific institution. 'Ihe interplay bebleen the individual's
cx:mnitirent to the institution detennines whether or not the student decides to drop
out of college. 'Ihe adviser should be a oonoerned and interested human being who
provides a personal link with the College. 'Ihe faculty adviser nay, for sare
students, be the only oollege official who kncws hi.nVher by nane and responds on
a personal basis.
'Ihe stu:lent has a definite responsibility to be cMare of credits needed
for graduation. Because it is ultina~ly the student's respoosibility to choose
oourses of study, the adviser should recognize the inportance of his/her
cx:mnit:nent when assisting the student in naking appropriate choices.
Edinboro State College believes that faculty advisers are generally best
qualified to provide acadanic advice for the student. 'Ihe advisenent 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 depart:ment chairperson.

L

'Ihe n&1 student is notified of the adviser assigrment by mail prior to
registration day. 'Ihe nane of the faculty adviser is also printed on the
class schedule. 'lhe adviser is expected to maintain a folder for eadl advisee.
'!he faOll.ty adviser retains a a:py of eadl p:rq:>ased sc:nedule prepared during
pre-registration. Lik&ll.Se, periodic grade reports and ClDlllative academic
histories, are filed in the student folder.
'!he adviser is expected to past a sc:nedule of office hours. During
pre-registration, the advisee m.JSt make an appoint:nent with the adviser for the
purpose of advisenent and sc:neduling. 'Ihe adviser will have a c:rnputerized a:py
of the student's cumulative academic record. The faculty adviser and advisee are
enoouraged to review academic progress and to select appropriate oourses for the
forthcaning senester. '!he faculty adviser, when providing acadanic and personal
advisement, rray occasionally enoounter situations which are beyond his expertise.
If assistance is needed, the adviser oontacts the department c:hairperscn, dean,

ANNUAL REPORT

The Institute for Community Servic-e s, Edinboro State College, was
founded in 1969 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 reflect more appropriately the overall activities of the agency. The
Institute is an integral part of the responsibilities and operations of
Edinboro State College and its educational objectives in serving the residents of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.
Over the past five years, the Institute' s programs and projects have
significantly expanded. The work of the staff has been recognized by all
government levels and industry to the extent that Edinboro State College
is one of very few institutions of higher education in the nation to assume
the responsibilities it is presently carrying out.
Activities for 1978-79 (July l, 1978-June 30, 1979) fall into seven
categories:
1.

Programs conducted under terms of the Title I, Higher Education
Act, grant for its Consumer Training and Information Program.

Title I, Higher Education Act Grant #1
A significant portion of the 1978-79 activities was devoted to carrying out the terms of ·t he two Title I, HEA, grants awarded the Institute by
the Pennsylvania Department of Education. This first grant called for a
number of seminars, workshops and/or conferences in the area of consumer
issues training and information, together with the operation of the Institute's Speakers Bureau and publication of the consumer newsletter.
Twelve workshops were conducted across the Commonwealth and took place
in Erie, Oil City, Johnstown, New Stanton, Carlisle, Williamsport, Reading,
Edinboro, and West Chester. These were principally directed to and conducted for community action agency staff personnel and other local institutional r,presentatives in order to provide such persons with information
and subptantive materials in dealing with consumer problems when serving
their clients and members. Topics included programs on the Pennsylvania
Bureau of Consumer Protection: Its Mandate and Responsibilities; State and
Local Consumer Offices and Organizations; Pennsylvania Small Claims Courts;
Landlord-Tenant Problems; Credit and Money Management; Pennsylvania's Auto
Repair and Purchasing Regulations; Property Taxation and Consumers; Public
Utilities; Health Care Issues; and Food Purchasing and the Consumer. These
twelve workshops serviced 561 persons from nineteen Pennsylvania counties.
In addition to the workshops, eighteen seminars were conducted for
senior citizens and Head Start young people. These took place in Girard,
Albion, North East, and on the Edinboro ·State College campus, and covered
a wide variety of topics designed to enable these people to better cope
with marketplace problems. These seminars served 1,065 people.
The third aspect of this project dealt with statewide and regional
conferences conducted by the Institute. In October, 1978, the Institute,
together with the Bell Telephone Company of Pennsylvania, conducted a PreRate Filing Conference at Allenberry, Pennsylvania. This was the first
such joint consumer-utility meeting of its kind ever held in the telecommunications industry and has provided new direction for many other
companies across the nation. In addition, the Institute assumed responsibility for setting up the consumer portion of the National Measured Service
Workshop held in Kansas City, Missouri, a conference of over 200 persons,
established by the Bell System, General Telephone & Electronics, United
Telephone, Continental Telephone, and other independent companies.
Finally, the Eastern Consumer Conference was again conducted by the
Institute. The theme of the 1979 Conference was "Critical Consumer Issues
in the Marketplace" and featured several outstanding national and regional
speakers and participants. This Conference and the Allenberry meeting
attracted almost 200 consumer, co111DUnity, government, industry and educational leaders from Pennsylvania and fifteen other states.
One of the constantly requested services is the Institute Speakers
Bureau. Although the 1978-79 requests fell from the 1977-78 high, staff
members were again active speaking before various groups, agencies and
organizations. It should also be noted that as the Institute's programs
have broadened, the requests for other engagements by the Institute's
staff-many of which have been out-of-state with major, national

85

r
r
consumer-industry meetings-have increased.

The Speakers Bureau staff

members serviced 577 people in various parts of the Commonwealth.

Northwest Consumer Forum
During 1978-79 the distribution of the Institute's consumer newsletter,
the Northwest Consumer Forum surpassed the 4,500 mark and continues to grow.
It is one of very few publications of its kind in the country.

Title I, Higher Education Act Grant #2
One of the major activities of the Institute's local government
assistance program-was a series of nine workshops and seminars to help local
government officials in Erie and Crawford counties understand and prepare
for rapid development from the proposed U.S. Steel mill. The steel mill
represents a major event for public officials in the small communities and
rural townships in the two counties, and the sessions were designed to
advance an understanding of growth and how to deal with it • . The steel mill
series was a timely and appropriate community service in Northwest Pennsylvania dealing with the following topics: '"Problems in Preparing for U.S.
Steel: What Can Local Governments Do?" "Preparing to Regulate Growth,"
"Sensible Growth," ''How to Achieve Sensible Growth" (in three parts),
''Yho' s in Control?" "The Impact of Growth on Human Services," and "Steel
Mill Impacts: The Canadian Experience." The sessions presented both the
problems of growth and alternatives for dealing with those problems. The
objective was to reach 500 local government officials in both the Pennsylvania and Ohio impact areas. A total of 1,043 public officials attended
the nine workshops, an average of 116 per session. Th.e project required
close cooperation with regional organizations including the Northwest
Pennsylvania Futures Committee, Erie County Planning Department, Crawford
County Planning Department, Northwest Regional Planning and Development
Commission, Pennsylvania Del)artment of Community Affairs, the Erie County
Association of Township Supervisors, and the Geography Department on campus.
The project was considered very successful, both in terms of service and
working relationships with community organizations.

Regional Public Affairs
The publication of the newsletter, Regional Public Affairs, is another
important service of the Institute. The newsletter goes out to approxi~o
mately 700 public officials throughout Northwest Pennsylvania. The newsletter deals with topics of importance to local governments and regional
organizations. Examples include: "The New Ethics Law, Act 170 of 1978,"
"Local and State Alternatives for Preserving Northwest Pennsylvania's
Rural Life Style," "Local Government Growth," "Steel Mill Building and
Population Growth in Gary, Indiana (1906) and Springfield Township,
Pennsylvania (1980?)." The Institute solicits articles from the faculty
of the College, and thus offers a valuable outlet to coamunities for our
faculty members.

Internships
The public service internship program at Edinboro was established by
the Bureau of Government Services in 1972 and the Institute staff has
can:ied the program forward. This program is now seven years old and has
the responsibility for the criminal justice internship program. At the
present time the Institute is placing approximately 45 interns per year in
various public and private, nonprofit agencies.

Other Activities
Over the course of the 1978-79 year Institute staff members addressed
a number ,~f major conferences, special meetings and symposia serving an
additional 1,058 persons. These included:

panels and roundtables-the objectives of which are to identify, discuss
and hopefully resolve various mutual issues affecting the parties to the
panels. During 1978-79 these activities involved the following national
industries and companies:

In addition, the Institute is represented on the Board of Directors
of the National Institute for Automotive Servi.c e Excellence, a national
organization established in 1972 for the purpose of testing and certifying
automobile and truck mechanics.
At various times Institute staff members testify on proposed. state and
federal regulations and legislation. The past year found testimony being
given on the Pennsylvania Public Utility Commission's concern over the
inability of consumers to pay the ever-increasing rates for utilities. The
Inst1tute also gave testimony before the U.S. Metric Board on the question
of the metric conversion of gasoline pumps.
Finally, the Institute is working with General Telephone Company of
Pennsylvania in attempting to resolve consumer problems with that company
and is assisting General McLane School District on its Consumer Advisory
Conmittee.

Financing
Financing for the Institute's programs came from a variety of sources.
During 1978-79 the two Title I, HEA, grants provided the bulk of revenues
for Institute operations. Aside from one and one-half salaries and office
space, the Commonwealth, through the College, supplies a small additional
budget for the Institute's operations.
Through its efforts in working with industry, business, community and
government organizations and agencies and interested individuals, the
Institute raised a total of $82,246 during 1978-79, of which $4,515 was
for its consumer scholarsl)ip fund, to which 28 individuals, agencies and
companies contributed. These included:

In addition to scholarship funds, the Institute receives a small amount
of revenue as a result of its workshops and conferences as well as some
administrative costs for assisting in conferences. These revenues have
relieved the College considerably so far as various day-to-day expenses of
the Institute are concerned. At the present time the Institute pays for
most of i .t s own travel, first-class postage and office supplies. It should
be noted that a sizable amount of honoraria received by Institute personnel
is donated back to the Institute for its programs. This applies to both
speech presentations and consultant work carried out by the Institute staff.

SI.Qlllllary

Through its efforts in working with government agencies, business,
industry, community organizations and interested individuals, the Institute
raised a total of $82,246 during 1978-79, $4,515 of which was for its
consumer scholarship fund, to which 28 individuals, agencies and companies
contributed.
The staff of the Institute for Community Services-listed below-believes the past year has been a most productive one. Its programs have
reached almost 10,000, not including radio and television programs, public
testimony and other projects. The Institute's work is recognized nationally
as a leading higher education institution involved in consumer affairs
proje-c ts. Simila.rly, it is recognized by major businesses and industries
as a responsible and productive agency as shown through contributions to
the Institute Scholarship Fund.
Edinboro State College, through the Institute for Community Services
and its efforts toward communities and their residents, has provided and
continues to provide services to community organizations, community action
agencies, voluntary consumer groups, businesses, industries, educational
institutions, trade associations and countless thousands of Pennsylvania
residents at a minimum of cost.
