1989 Oakland County Residents Attitude and Opinion Survey

Abstract

In 1986, the Michigan Board of Education undertook a study of Oakland County residents' attitudes, perceptions and opinions about Oakland Community College. The purpose of the research was to provide the college with the information needed to more effectively communicate with and provide needed programs to the community it serves. The present study, undertaken in October of 1989, was designed as a continuing effort to monitor public opinion about Oakland Community College. The findings will be used as a basis for changing the current curriculum and programs as needed. Of greatest importance, the findings provide the information needed to develop more effective information, communication and promotional strategies.
