This report summarizes how your comparison groups were constructed and lists the institutions within them. NSSE comparison groups may be customized by (a) identifying specific institutions from the list of all 2018 and 2019 NSSE participants, (b) composing the group by selecting institutional characteristics, or (c) a combination of these. Institutions that chose not to customize received default groupsa that provide relevant comparisons for most institutions. Institutions that appended additional question sets in the form of Topical Modules or through consortium participation were also invited to customize comparison groups for those reports. The default for those groups was all other 2018 and 2019 institutions where the questions were administered. Please note: Comparison group details for Topical Module and consortium reports are documented separately in those reports.

  • The Case for Christian Higher Education
    COUNCIL FOR CHRISTIAN COLLEGES & UNIVERSITIES THE CASE FOR CHRISTIAN HIGHER EDUCATION 1 | THE CASE FOR CHRISTIAN HIGHER EDUCATION ADVANCING FAITH AND INTELLECT FOR THE COMMON GOOD 2 | THE CASE FOR CHRISTIAN HIGHER EDUCATION ADVANCING FAITH AND INTELLECT FOR THE COMMON GOOD The Council for Christian Colleges & Universities (CCCU) is a higher education association of more than 180 Christian institutions around the world. The CCCU’s mission is to advance the cause of Christ-centered higher education and to help our institutions transform lives by faithfully relating scholarship and service to biblical truth. The institutions of the CCCU share three basic commitments: First, we integrate biblical truth not just into “spiritual” aspects of the institution but throughout the academic enterprise. Our professors pursue academic excellence because they are committed to God as the author of truth, and that truth has implications for every academic discipline. The classroom and the laboratory are just as much arenas of Christian integration as the college chapel. Second, we are committed to the moral and spiritual formation of students. Education that instructs the mind without deepening the soul is not true learning. Our schools seek to develop students who, in the words of the Old Testament prophet, “act justly and love mercy and walk humbly with their God” (Micah 6:8). This requires not simply professional competence but wisdom, which is a sense of things in their proper relationship and a love for the right things. Our purpose is to form students of moral commitment who live out Christian virtues such as love, courage, and humility.
