- W2762216941 abstract "INTRODUCTION Beginning in 2013 and spanning four research articles, we have implemented an empirical analysis protocol for honors education that is rooted in demography (Scott; Scott and Smith; Smith and Scott Growth; Smith and Scott, Demography). The goal of this protocol is to describe the structure and distribution of the honors population, but instead of a focus on aggregates of students or faculty and staff, the educational institution is the unit of analysis. This organizational demography has answered many questions about the growth of honors throughout collegiate education over time (Smith and Scott, Growth); documenting infrastructural and programmatic differences between honors colleges and programs, and between those programs at two-year and four-year institutions (Scott); identifying the existence of all institutions offering honors education in the United States and how they are grouped by institutional mission and control (Scott and Smith); and mapping the location and regional affiliation of all honors programs and colleges in the United States (Smith and Scott, Demography). We learned that in the first half-century of the existence of the National Collegiate Honors Council (NCHC), honors education expanded by 400%, with specific waves of growth in the 1960s and 1980s, followed by increases in the 2000s in the number of programs transitioning to colleges at a time when overall growth in honors plateaued (Smith and Scott, Growth). We saw that offering honors curricula campus-wide is now pervasive in American higher education, having a presence at 1,503 of the 2,500 nonprofit undergraduate institutions, with that presence divided into over 1,300 programs and just under 200 colleges (Scott and Smith). We discovered that clear patterns exist among honors types in NCHC: institutions with honors colleges generally evidence more complex infrastructure and more investment of resources than institutions with honors programs, and the same can be said of honors programs at four-year institutions compared to those at two-year institutions (Scott). We noticed that institutional control, i.e., private versus public control, does not distinguish honors programs, with nearly equal percentages of public and private institutions having programs, but it does matter for honors colleges, with many more located in the public sector (Scott and Smith). We determined that the distribution of honors programs and colleges varies by institutional type, with many more honors colleges in doctoral universities than in master's, baccalaureate, or associate's institutions (Scott and Smith). Finally, we discovered that NCHC represents nearly 60% of institutions with honors programs or colleges and that non-members appear to have far fewer resources and be more isolated from the honors community, not only nationally but also regionally (Smith and Scott, Demography). One qualifying note is that a few non-members are doctoral universities with large honors programs; although they do not fit the overall profile of non-members, they are too few in number to affect the generalization. We proposed enriching the dataset we assembled that answered the questions above by combining forces with NCHC so that we could potentially answer additional questions. In the spring of 2016, we shared our Integrated Postsecondary Educational Data System, or IPEDS (Carnegie), dataset with the NCHC office so that they could begin reaching out to the non-members we had identified in order to grow membership. After following NCHC's data use and access permission protocol, we then jointly composed a questionnaire to conduct a census of honors programs and colleges in the United States. The questionnaire items are similar or identical to those used in the NCHC Member Survey of 2012-13 (Scott) although a few new items were added, including characteristics of the administrators running the honors academic unit, presence of a student participation fee, and employment of student workers. …" @default.
