Institutionele geschiedenis
The SCSU Survey began in 1980 by faculty member Steve Frank. He conducted surveys in conjunction with the Political Science classes he was teaching. The center grew and included other St. Cloud State faculty. The primary mission of SCSU Survey is to serve the academic community and various clients through its commitment to high quality survey research and to provide education and experientl opportunities to researchers and students.
The center conducts statewide surveys that focus on issues such as election races, currents events, and other important topics. It also conducts a yearly survey of St. Cloud State students as well as contract with entities outside of the university.
Content and structure elements
Bereik en inhoud
The material here is mostly the surveys done by the center since 1980. Arranged by year, the surveys are statewide surveys done to gauge the opinions of Minnesotans regarding politics, services, and direction that the state is moving. There are also surveys conducted to discover the opinion of students regarding campus services and activities. In addition, the collection contains a small number of surveys done for others outside of St. Cloud State.
The surveys are in various stages of completeness. Depending on the survey, there may be any combination of the questionnaire, raw data, press releases, evaluation and interpretation of the results, and other associated information.
All the surveys have been digitized and placed in the SCSU Survey community in the Repository @ St. Cloud State: https://repository.stcloudstate.edu/scsusurvey/. Here they can be viewed and downloaded.
