2 SLO, IEP, or IEP/SLO Effectiveness Indicators (Measures): List here the indicators [measures] you will use in your assessment of this SLO or IEP. What are the things you will measure to determine whether your intended SLO or IEP was achieved? Note: include in this list the effectiveness indicator you will use for the Divisional intercultural relations SLO. 1. Average daily (Monday through Friday) utilization data from ID swipes and hand counts at turnstiles and entry gate. 2. The average APPA score for each level of the building. 3. Demographic data from card swipe information. 4. Number of participants in instructional clinics. 5. Percent of outdoor trip participants who minimally agree that they interact with, discover similarities among, and strengthen their relationships with people from different cultures. SLO, IEP, or IEP/SLO Evaluation Criteria (Success Criteria): List here the evaluation criteria you will use for this SLO, IEP, or SLO/IEP. What level of accomplishment defines success? What indicates a need for improvement? 1. Average daily usage will increase a minimum of 5% (from results). Improvement is needed if entries decrease more than 5%. 2. Three of the 4 levels will meet the criteria for an APPA score of 2 or better. 3. Ethnic data from card swipe data will reveal a diverse profile of participants closely approximating the ethnic profile of the University. 4. Total number of registrants will exceed 50% of the maximum registration allowed. 5. At least 50% of the students who participate on outdoor trips will respond with a minimum of agree to the questions regarding cultural competency on a post-trip evaluation survey. Results 1. Average daily usage will increase a minimum of 5% (from results). Improvement is needed if entries decrease more than 5%. MET Average daily usage increased 6.8% in the past year. Average daily (M-F) utilization data ~ all entries; all groups; turnstiles and hand counts (July 2008 through April 2009) = 202 open days divided by 369,719 entries = 1,830/day Page 2 of 5

3 09-10 (July 2009 through April 2010) = 195 open days divided by 380,952 entries = 1,954/day This represents a 6.8% increase in entries (and we were open 7 less days...!). We exceeded the evaluation criteria. 2. Three of the 4 levels will meet the criteria for an APPA score of 2 or better. (averaged over several evaluations from Fall through Spring semesters.) MET: ALL levels scored 2 or better! To assure fair and unbiased results, three different custodial supervisors were identified as the evaluators. Group-1: first and second shift and weekend custodians. Group-2: GSU campus Building Service's Director of Operations and the SRC Facilities Use Coordinator. Group-3: two different outside cleaning professionals. Monthly audits were conducted from November 2009 through March The evaluators were given the APPA Cleanliness Guidelines and Checklist, the APPA Appearance Levels Definitions, and a customized floor by floor audit form. Scores for all (5) indicators along with the scores for each of the (3) evaluator groups averaged the following results (Level 1-5 with 1 the best): SRC Custodial Staff Floors & Base Moldings Vertical Surfaces Horizontal Surfaces Trash Containers Lighting SRC/BS Managerial Staff Floors & Base Moldings Vertical Surfaces Horizontal Surfaces Trash Containers Lighting Outside Professionals Floors & Base Moldings Vertical Surfaces Horizontal Surfaces Trash Containers Lighting Page 3 of 5

4 3. Ethnic data from card swipe data will reveal a diverse profile of participants closely approximating the ethnic profile of the University. MET Below are the ethnicity statistics for the university compared to the ethnicity statistics of the users of the Student Recreation Center. The ethnicity of the users closely matches that of the student population with the exception of the white category. There appear to be more whites who do NOT use the SRC as compared to other ethnicities. Perhaps this is not something to be concerned about. At what point would this be a concern???????????
