  • Donald Sanford
    2015 INDUCTEE DONALD SANFORD ONALD WAS BORN AND RAISED IN PARRISH, ALABAMA, where he Dfollowed in the footsteps of his uncle Bruce Jones, a member of the “Half Century All-Time Great Players at the University of Alabama.” Donald started every game in his career at Parrish where he played for coach Edward Childs. His senior year, they amassed a record of 11-2-1 beating Birmingham powerhouse Woodlawn 13-6 in a game played at Legion Field. He signed to play football at the University of Alabama where he was destined to find greatness. Donald was a three year letterman who played for both Wallace Wade and Frank Thomas at Alabama. He played on the Crimson Tideʼs last Southern Conference Championship team (1930). Donald was key figure in Wadeʼs last game at Alabama where he anchored the offensive line in Bamaʼs 24-0 win over Washington State in the 1931 Rose Bowl which clinched Bamaʼs 10-0 season and gave the Tide their fourth National Championship. While at the University of Alabama, he played with some of the all-time great players such as: Don Hutson, Dixie Howell, Johnny Cain, and Fred Sington. Donald came back to Walker County in 1947 as an assistant football coach and head basketball coach for the Walker County High School Vikings. He then took over the reigns as the head coach of the football team for the 1948-49 seasons. He had the unique opportunity to obtain the authentic football from the 1931 Rose Bowl victory which became a family heirloom and is still in the possession of the family today.

  • Muhlenberg College Five-Year Diversity Strategic Plan
    Muhlenberg College Five‐Year Diversity Strategic Plan Approved by the Board of Trustees, October 24, 2014 Preamble: Terminology Throughout its work, members of the Diversity Strategic Planning Committee (DSPC) wrestled with the problem of appropriate terminology in discussing Muhlenberg's diversity aspirations. While acknowledging that many types of diversity are important and beneficial, in reviewing the revised and updated Muhlenberg College Statement on Diversity (see Appendix C) we agreed that this plan should focus on those types of diversity represented by "historically underrepresented and marginalized groups" within our community. Having said that, we found that other terms, however imperfect they may be, are occasionally useful, accurate, and necessary. The term "multicultural," for example, while inapt for describing individuals, has gained acceptance at Muhlenberg as a general term for many of the groups we understand as "historically underrepresented and marginalized" at the College. The Multicultural Center is now a hub of activity for students of color, international students, Queer students, feminist students, and others. In considering alternatives to "multicultural" in use on other campuses, we found other options equally problematic. In certain contexts the term "students of color" or "faculty/staff of color" are used when the underlying data specifically reference racial diversity. Introduction Muhlenberg College’s Diversity Strategic Planning Committee (DSPC) was convened in April, 2013 by President Helm in response

  • Schools That Meet 100% of Financial Need
    Schools That Meet 100% of Financial Need By Lynn O’Shaughnessy TheCollegeSolution.com While there are nearly 2,800 four-year colleges and universities in the United States, there are less than six dozen that claim that they meet 100% of the demonstrated financial need of all or most of their students. The list below includes the names of those schools. I’ve also included institutions on this list that say that they meet at least 93% of financial need or higher. Those are the bold- faced institutions. You need to keep in mind that the institutions self report these figures. A school’s gener- osity will depend heavily on the institutional aid formula that it uses. For instance, Boston College says it meet 100% of need, but its aid formula calculates the full value of a family’s home equity. It also takes a much closer look at a family’s finances than some of the other schools you’ll see below. Consequently, even schools that are similarly priced could offer significantly different packages. For example, the average need-based aid package for Boston College students is $32,146. Compare that to Amherst College’s average aid package of $47,553. WHAT DOES MEETING 100% OF FINANCIAL NEED MEAN? I often find that parents are confused by what this term —meeting 100% of financial need—means. I hope this clears up the confusion: A school that meets 100% of need will provide an aid package that fills the gap between what a family’s Expected Family Contribution is and a school’s cost of attendance.

    Image description. Cover Image End of image description. NATIONAL CENTER FOR EDUCATION STATISTICS What Is IPEDS? The Integrated Postsecondary Education Data System (IPEDS) is a system of survey components that collects data from about 7,500 institutions that provide postsecondary education across the United States. IPEDS collects institution-level data on student enrollment, graduation rates, student charges, program completions, faculty, staff, and finances. These data are used at the federal and state level for policy analysis and development; at the institutional level for benchmarking and peer analysis; and by students and parents, through the College Navigator (http://collegenavigator.ed.gov), an online tool to aid in the college search process. For more information about IPEDS, see http://nces.ed.gov/ipeds. What Is the Purpose of This Report? The Data Feedback Report is intended to provide institutions a context for examining the data they submitted to IPEDS. The purpose of this report is to provide institutional executives a useful resource and to help improve the quality and comparability of IPEDS data. What Is in This Report? As suggested by the IPEDS Technical Review Panel, the figures in this report provide selected indicators for your institution and a comparison group of institutions. The figures are based on data collected during the 2013-14 IPEDS collection cycle and are the most recent data available. This report provides a list of pre-selected comparison group institutions and the criteria used for their selection. Additional information about these indicators and the pre- selected comparison group are provided in the Methodological Notes at the end of the report.

Senior Theses, Trinity College, Hartford, CT 2018. Trinity College Digital Repository, https://digitalrepository.trincoll.edu/theses/710 Running Head: ESTIMATING RETURN ON COLLEGE EDUCATION Using Institutional Characteristics to Estimate Return on College Education Nathaniel R. Choukas Trinity College ESTIMATING RETURN ON COLLEGE EDUCATION 2 Abstract Since the 1980s, the college wage-premium in the United States has reached all time highs. As a result, college education is a critical benchmark in securing high paying jobs. While the bachelor’s degree serves as a gateway into more lucrative careers, postsecondary education can be very costly, with some taking on substantial amounts of debt to finance their schooling. Despite the increasing wage-premium, there is an even wider earnings disparity amongst college graduates than between graduates and non-graduates. Research on higher education returns suggests that most individuals – even those ranked as having low ability – benefit financially from their investment in education. At the institutional level; however, some schools produce median returns on investment that are well below zero. This begs the question, why are a considerable number of the nation’s higher education institutions underserving their students? I use OLS to test the hypothesis that schools in rural settings displaced from major cities, and with religious affiliation will be critical variables in explaining college return on investment.
