  • The First Year of Ball State: Personal and Policy Conflicts, 1918-1919 An
    ,- I The First Year of Ball State: Personal and Policy Conflicts, 1918-1919 An Honors Thesis (HONRS 499) by Alan P. Hagedon -- Thesis Advisor Dr. Tony Edmonds ~0L-. Ball State University Muncie, Indiana Date 16 June 1995 Expected date of graduation May 1995 --1- ( ... __ , ,_ : I ~ ,--.- ; --I Purpose of Thesis This paper discusses the various issues confronted between 1918 and 1919 by the Eastern Division of the Indiana State Normal School which became Ball State Teacher's College. The primary emphasis is placed upon how the administrators and faculty approached and dealt with the controversies and conflicts during this school's first year of operation. Letters of correspondence between the Eastern Division and the Terre Haute Division of Indiana State Normal School were the most crucial resource by which the dialogue between the two schools was reconstructed. -I - 1 This paper will deal with four of the issues that Ball State faced during its first year of operation. Ball State University, called the Eastern Division in 1918, was started as an extension branch of Indiana State University, then known as Indiana State Normal School (I.S.N.S.) (1). This new division of the Indiana State Normal School was the result of the circumstances and opportunities facing I.S.N.S. in 1918. The state of Indiana needed more and better teachers, but I.S.N.S. could not by itself meet this need (2). Moreover I.S.N.S. was faced with a surplus of faculty, since World War I led to a decrease in student enrollment (3).

  • Higher Retention Rates for Pell- Receiving Students Who Used the App
    Ball State University - IN - Assurance Argument - 6/7/2018 Assurance Argument Ball State University - IN 6/7/2018 Ball State University - IN - Assurance Argument - 6/7/2018 1 - Mission The institution’s mission is clear and articulated publicly; it guides the institution’s operations. 1.A - Core Component 1.A The institution’s mission is broadly understood within the institution and guides its operations. 1. The mission statement is developed through a process suited to the nature and culture of the institution and is adopted by the governing board. 2. The institution’s academic programs, student support services, and enrollment profile are consistent with its stated mission. 3. The institution’s planning and budgeting priorities align with and support the mission. (This sub-component may be addressed by reference to the response to Criterion 5.C.1.) Argument Ball State’s mission was clearly defined in the 2012-2017 strategic plan Education Redefined 2.0: Advancing Indiana as follows: As a public research university, we focus on students and high-quality, relevant educational outcomes. Disciplinary knowledge is integrated with application. We do this in a manner that fundamentally changes students, researchers, and our external partners, who look to the University for guidance. We transform information into knowledge, knowledge into judgment, and judgment into action that addresses complex problems. During 2014-2015 the strategic plan was reconceived as the Centennial Commitment (18 by ’18), which included the following refreshed vision statement: Ball State University aspires to be a model of the most student-centered and community-engaged of the 21st century public research universities, transforming entrepreneurial learners into impactful leaders—committed to improving the quality of life for all.

PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE: Led by Councilman Ingram. ROLL CALL: PRESENT ABSENT Jeff Robinson X Troy Ingram X Ralph Smith X Chair of the Land & Traffic Committee, Councilman Robinson, welcomes everyone to the meeting regarding the YMCAs proposal for downtown development of Tuhey Park. Before they begin, he would like to point out and emphasize that there is no official action being proposed at this time by the City Administration or the YMCA. City Council has not received an ordinance to discuss and decide on any official action regarding this proposal. This meeting is for informational purposes, to allow key stakeholders to present their proposals and to allow adjacent neighborhoods to speak on this issue as well as members of the public to voice their support or opposition of this project. If the City Administration chooses to pursue this proposal further, action will need to be taken by the City Council to approve. If official action is proposed to the Muncie City Council, more opportunities for the public to speak and ask questions will be provided. They, as members of the Land & Traffic Committee, as well as colleagues on the entire Council, believe public engagement and input from citizens is absolutely vital to the process. Tonight's meeting is to allow those wishing to speak on this proposal a forum to do so . They ask that everyone remain respectful and civil this evening.
