SUNY Student Opinion Survey (Form B) Graphics Report for Suffolk County Community College

Prepared by ACT Survey Research Services September 2006

This report provides graphical information for selected items for your college and for a comparison sample of similar SUNY institutions. Not all surveys returned to A CT for processing are represented in this report. Student records with invalid responses ("Very Satisfied" through "Very Dissatisfied") to the random response check item (Section IIIA, Item 20) were eliminated

from all data files and analyses. Also, to assure that no institution was overrepresented in the comparison statistics, A CT randomly selected, from each institution 's valid survey records, the "target number" of returned surveys communicated to the campus survey coordinator by SUNY officials at the start of the project.

For all Likert scale items (e.g., a 5-point satisfaction scale), data are displayed for your institution's top and bottom items (based on item average) as well as the items with the greatest and least differences between your institutional results and those of comparable SUNY colleges. Please note that percentages may not add to 100 due to the effect of rounding.

The SUNY "Comparison Colleges" data used in this report are based on 2,288 student records from the postsecondary institutions listed below. Comparative data of this type are often referred to as "user norms" because they simply represent a composite of the data obtained by a number of institutions that administered the instrument during a particular period of time. Please note that your institution 's data were removed from the comparison group data prior to comparisons.
