Fraternity Policies The Governing Documents of Alpha Kappa Psi are: There are several documents within Alpha Kappa Psi that helps things work smoothly.

Stock, Ph.D. Assistant Professor of Higher Education and Nathan R. Keith, Jr. Statistical Analyst Institute of Education December l, 1969 PREFACE Administrative and academic personnel often need basic factual institutional information when preparing grant proposals, developing long-range plans, answering questionnaires, or recruiting new faculty members. Although the information needed by these decision-makers is usually available from various offices on campus, it is often a piecemeal and time-consuming task for the administrator and the data-collecting office to assemble the needed information. This publication is a first step toward the alleviation of these data collection problems. The basic purpose of this fact book, therefore, is to present useful objective information about the University of Georgia. It is a pilot project which may become an annual publication. It is by no means an exhaustive presentation of statistical information about the University. The editors have attempted to include information which might be relevant to the audience for which the publication is designed, i.e., deans, directors, and department heads. The information contained herein was obtained from the various campus offices having primary data-collection responsibilities.
