Tóm tắt

For four years, graduates of The King’s University College (TKUC) three-year Bachelor of Arts and Bachelor of Science programs were polled as to their perception of TKUC’s success in attaining its missionstatement claims. The questionnaire results suggest that the claims, which pertain to "gaining a deeper understanding of God’s creation, maturing and growing as Christians, contributing to an advancement of knowledge, and being of service to the community," have been met for a substantial number of students. However, because the numbers are small, i.e., 132 students out of a possible population of 226, follow-up research will be necessary to determine whether perceived changes in students’ faith and understanding are specifically attributable to the college’s influence. © 2000, Taylor & Francis Group, LLC.
