Second Thoughts of a High-Tech Cheerleader

By: Susan Saltrick

From Volume 25 Number 1 | Fall 1996

Abstract: Contends that new technologies should be viewed as enhancements to existing modes of instruction, rather than replacements. Furthermore, the author asserts that new technologies have failed to supplant student desire for community or the importance of connection to a physical place – to a "real" reality, not merely a virtual one.

How Far Will Commuters Travel?

By: Gary L. Donhardt

Location, cost, and good highways are crucial.

From Volume 25 Number 1 | Fall 1996

Abstract: An survey of more than 7,000 students, teachers, citizens, and business persons reveals several factors for institutions to consider when planning the best way to meet the needs of their existing and potential commuter population. Suggests that for most students, proximity and cost are more important that institutional prestige. Also, travel time, rather than actual distance, significantly impacts a commuting student’s choice to attend a particular institution. Additionally, students would prefer more weekend instruction, in contrast with a general faculty preference for mid-week teaching schedules.

The Outburst of Student Recreation Centers

By: David Body

A change in undergraduate interests has created a new kind of campus building.

From Volume 25 Number 1 | Fall 1996

Abstract: Examines the development of student recreation centers, which are neither gymnasiums nor student centers but which incorporate elements of both. According to the author, four changes provided the impetus for the development of recreation centers: greater quantity and quality of intercollegiate athletics; increased participation of women; expanded student interest in fitness and exercise; and a rise in the demand for round-the-clock recreation facilities. Considers the planning and design challenges institutions face in developing such centers.
