Ron Nowaczyk Paul Bylaska
AACRAO – Fall 2012
Overview
1. Context 2. Outline of the Process 3. Example Scorecard 4. The Outcomes 5. Some Concluding ObservaPons
Clarion University
• Public InsPtuPon in Rural Western PA – Part of the PA State System of Higher EducaPon – Student PopulaPon of 7000 students – Four Colleges – Historic Mission was Teacher Ed.
• New President in 2010 & New Provost in 2011 • Declining State Support – Upcoming Year = 24%
Clarion University
• Adopted Responsibility-‐Centered Management in 2011-‐12
• Budget Cuts could no longer be across the board.
• Heavily unionized campus
Outline of the Process – Fall 2011
• Future budget cuts from state likely • RCM in its first semester of implementaPon • President states need to evaluate all programs – Academic
• Degree programs (not minors or cerPficates)
– Infrastructure • Dickeson (2010) model used to guide process • Data support team formed
RCM Development – Fall 2011
• Common Cost AccounPng Report (CCAR) – Not enough detail – Not well understood – Would not support decision-‐making
• Built on decentralized budget model • West Chester Approach – Start with summer model (as test case) – Expand out to academic year – Net revenue based on marginal revenue -‐ cost
RCM Development – Fall 2011
• Kutztown Approach – Calculated Average cost / student-‐credit-‐hour – PosiPve or negaPve variance from average – Credits and cost at individual faculty level – Very data intensive – Could we support this? (Not with our staff)
Clarion RCM – Fall 2011
• BRIC (Budget Review & ImplementaPon) – RepresenPng cross-‐secPon of university – Advisory to RC Managers Group – Produced RC Manual for iniPal guidance
• In pracPce some recommendaPons were too complex/Pme consuming to implement
• Infrastructure assessment – average cost
Outline of the Scorecard Process Spring 2012
• Academic Program Scorecards Evolve – Possible Academic Variables Shared with Faculty
• Admissions Data • # of Majors • RetenPon and GraduaPon Data
– Financial Data by Academic Department – “Employment” Data Collected
The Scorecard Process – Spring 2012
• Several versions of data scorecard are circulated in mid-‐semester.
• Based on feedback, the final scorecard evolves.
• By end of April, academic scorecards are distributed to faculty and posted on university intranet.
• Scorecard Review Taskforces are formed.

Program Review Taskforce
• ComposiPon – Collegiate Deans – Faculty RepresentaPon – Staff RepresentaPon – Dean of Libraries
• Charge – Act like University “Trustees” – IdenPfy CriPcal Criteria – Sort Programs into QuinPles
Outcomes • Taskforce DeliberaPons – Reduced set of Academic Criteria
• QuinPle Rankings Released in early June • Summer Progress – Mandatory Review of 4th and 5th QuinPle Programs
– Voluntary Review of 1st to 3rd QuinPle Programs • Performance Targets & Plans required by fall 2012
ObservaPons -‐ Overall
• Faculty and staff took process seriously. – In many instances, this was first Pme faculty had seen data on many of the variables by program.
• Departments challenged data accuracy. • Linking departmental financial data with program costs not easy.
• We need more work on employment data.
ObservaPons Enrollment Management
• Recruitment: – Faculty understanding of “accepted, deposited, yield and matriculated.”
– Request to get data earlier from admissions and be more acPvely involved in recruitment
• Persistence: – Immediate arenPon on first-‐year factors:
• Student preparedness • Financial concerns
ObservaPons Enrollment Management
• GraduaPon – Change in major fata – Progress toward degree and years to graduate – RC (budgetary) implicaPons
Moving Forward • The process will be refined and repeated. – ConsideraPon of data variables.
• We need to move the summer acPviPes into the spring semester for greater faculty involvement and acceptance.
• Faculty need to see changes and trends. • Process to be used for – program improvement – resource reallocaPon.
