STUDENT SATISFACTION SURVEY 2007 RESPONSES TO OPEN ...

1072: No suggestions. Was very helpful to me.1087: more in depth and not make it boring. more student interaction so people can relate.Clubs (officers) should be there to try to attract people about their clubs.1088: The only thing helpful to me was learning how to register for classes online. Everythingelse was a waste of time. The orientation would be better if the instructor could be morehands on. WHen I went, the instructor was too busy and there was a long line of peoplewaiting to ask questions.1089: Know one gave me a tour of the campus (Dalemabry)i was lost an confused. If it was notfor my strength in not giving up I would not have started college. I think in the newservice oreintation should include a tour for day students and night students.1096: don't really remember what happen that day so no idea..1098: I thought it was a waste of my time.1101: more information this could include a tour around the school1102: show similar majors that you can go instead of the one you are planning to major in.1120: Makes the orientation period shorter1134: .1138: N/A1139: I attended an online student orientation. However, the paperwork that I receivedproviding directions did not look professional. I believe that HCC could improve it'simage by having materials with a more "finished" appearance, and a more professionallook. I strongly believe that appearance can gain respect for the institution.1144: Nothing really; it seemed fine to me1146: long time since i took it but i would recommend an orientation before the studentplacement test giving the student a booklet to study from to help remember the littlethings like fractions so they do not have to go back so far with the basics....1150: the lady in charge could be a little less rude.1153: I took the online orientation. Let more students do this.1157: I attended the Honors Institute orientation and it was very helpful and informative1164: Have the orientations before the deadline for financial aid information has to be turned in.Example, I am a nursing student and I did not receive the costs for the program anddetails until orientation. This information would have been helpful when talking with thefinancial aid department and applying for my student loans.1167: Can't think of anything.1173: They should inform us about our degrees and our estimated time to complete it. I wish itwas more like USF. Very informative.1178: I spent over 3 hours there to learn nothing I didn't know already. I had taken a single classin the previous semester, but they still insisted I attend an orientation for my degreecourse. There was no representative from my degree and everyone there was doing adifferent course. I learnt nothing. It was 3 useless, boring hours of my life I will never seeagain...1184: For it to not be so long and drug out1190: The new student orientation would be nice if it went by faster.1192: It's been a couple of years since i attended, so I must admit I'm fuzzy on what wasdiscussed.1195: nothing1199: It was pretty good. A few things were repeated alot.Student Satisfaction Survey 2007 – Q6: New Student Orientation – Page 65
