  • Veteran Survey Results
    Veteran Survey Results BACKGROUND The Oklahoma Works Veteran Survey was launched on September 11, 2017 and was fielded to student veterans at postsecondary institutions across the state of Oklahoma. The purpose of the survey was to better understand what obstacles or difficulties military and veteran students face when trying to access benefits or any other challenges in the college experiences in general. To achieve validity, a response number of 337 was needed. When the survey closed in October 27, 2017, it had garnered 397 responses. Response rate from top ten schools. Response rate from schools past the “top ten” mark are in the 2% and lower range.

Most (46.9%) were army veterans, with Air Force following (25.7%) and Marines and Navy almost tied.iii We see an interesting spread in responses to the length of service question: 40 percent served 10 years or more, which is a surprising number with a variety of implications.

  • Cameron University Undergraduate Catalog 2009-2011
    2 PREFACE This catalog provides information about the academic programs of Cameron University. It also contains information concerning admissions, academic regulations and requirements, services available to C A M E R O N students, academic offerings and a list of the administrative officers and faculty of the University. While every effort has been made to make this catalog as complete and accurate as possible, changes may occur at any time in requirements, deadlines, fees, curricula and courses listed in this catalog. All such changes U N I V E R S I T Y are effective at such time as the proper institutional authorities determine and may apply not only to prospective students but also to those who are already enrolled in the University. This catalog should not be construed as a contract between Cameron and any person. The courses listed in a curriculum are required, but the display of a curriculum does not in any way indicate the length of time required for a student to finish degree requirements. Rather, this display is intended as a guide to indicate the preferred order for completion of degree requirements. Exceptions to certain requirements may be petitioned through proper academic channels. Because this catalog was prepared well in advance of its effective date, the course descriptions may differ in some instances from actual content taught in some courses, due to advancements in the discipline or decisions to change the scope of the course. Thus, the descriptions that follow are not provided in the nature of a contractual obligation. Some of the newer courses and changes in courses are included in this catalog pending their approval by the Oklahoma State Regents for Higher Education.

There are different reasons students leave college. Some of these reasons include: lack of financial resources/assistance; loss of focus; not feeling like “a part” of the community; lack of a good educational foundation; lack of knowledge about “how to be a college student”; and lack of a family/friend support structure. What can universities do to improve retention? The authors have found various activities that impact retention.
