The problem addressed in this study is the identification of perceived and preferred goals in post-primary educational institutions in Kaduna-State, Nigeria. The purposes of the study are to identify and analyze the most important goals and to make recommendations for improvements based on these findings. Chapter I discusses the background and significance of the study and the procedures used in collecting and analyzing data; Chapter II surveys related literature. Methodology and analysis of data are presented in Chapters III and IV. Chapter V offers the study's findings, summary, conclusions, and recommendations.

The problem of the study was to develop and investigate selected management functions in the role of division chairpersons in multi-campus community colleges. The researcher collected data concerning the role of division chairperson from presidents, academic deans or vice presidents, and division chairpersons within the Dallas County Community College District, Texas, and the Tarrant County Junior College, Texas. Purposes of the study included determining how much formal management education the division chairpersons had completed; and determining amounts of experience in their current roles, and in educational and non—educational organizations. Further purposes were to determine perceptions of all participants concerning both the importance of and the frequency of occurrence of 158 management activities in the role of division chairperson.

The problem of this study was to make short-term projections of student semester credit hour enrollments, at each of two state universities of comparable size, based on traditional time series analysis. 1. The first purpose of the study was to identify the cyclical component of deseasonalized enrollment data. 2. The second purpose was to determine a cyclical economic indicator having a high correlation with the cyclical component of the enrollment data. The selected economic indicator was used in establishing explanatory equations for projecting enrollment. 3. The third purpose was to compare projected 1979- 1980 academic year enrollment figures obtained from explanatory equations for each institution with actual enrollment figures of each institution for that year. 4. The fourth purpose was to compare the explanatory equations developed for the two institutions and the projections of student semester credit hour enrollments they yielded. 5. The fifth purpose was to discuss enrollment projections for each institution and the uses of enrollment projections in planning.
