OIR/U Lib Student Success
The culmination of the first phase of a project integrating library usage data provided by the University Libraries with University records was presented last week at the Library Technology Conference hosted by Macalester College in St. Paul, MN. This project combined the Fall 2011 library usage data with demographics and aggregated student success metrics, included term GPA and retention data to quantify the impact of the University Libraries. Krista Soria and David Peterson from OIR provided initial analysis and Andrea Galliger provided institutional data.
More about the presentation can be found on the Macalester Digital Commons site.

New SERU site released
We are pleased to announce the release of seru.umn.edu. The site content is centered around the Student Experience in the Research University (SERU) project, which is part of our overall U Matter student assessment strategy. This site is designed for students who are responding to the SERU survey, as well as staff, faculty and the entire University community, who will be promoting the survey and eventually using the survey results to inform decisions.
The site was developed by the Office of Institutional Research. The U Matter graphics were designed by the U Relations team, who also helped in designing the overarching brand for all of the survey communications.
Check the site for announcements about the survey. We will be publishing the 2012 response rates by College frequently after the survey has launched on March 20th, 2012.

The Fall 2011 Undergraduate Student Performance reports, which contains Term/Cumulative GPA, Credits Completed and Credits Completed Percentage for all campuses, are now available to current students, faculty and staff. Previously, the data was open to a much more limited audience.
Two new pages have been created to help clarify questions about some of the meta information behind the reports on the OIR site. First, the Data Load Schedule. Table contains the approximate schedule for the loading of all of the web based reports and the staff responsible for the data integrity. Second, the My Access page. You must have an UMN internet id (or guest account) to see this report. It shows which secure reports your account is able to access and how to request access.
