In an effort to gauge student perceptions of campus climate, the 1995 Spring Student Survey at Glendale Community College (GCC), in California, included a section requesting student feedback on the college. The section consisted of 14 sets of paired words, such as inexpensive and expensive, and students were requested to indicate the extent that either word applied to GCC. Responses were analyzed for 2,713 students and revealed the following: (1) over 80% responded that the college was somewhat or very safe, compared to 6% who thought it was somewhat or very unsafe; (2) about 74% thought that the college was somewhat or very friendly; (3) 67% said the college was somewhat or very accepting, while 6% thought it was somewhat or very rejecting; (4) 68% indicated that GCC had a somewhat or very good reputation, compared to 9% who indicated that it had a somewhat or very bad reputation; (5) 54% thought the college was somewhat or very expensive, compared to 22% who thought the college was somewhat or very inexpensive; (6) Asian students, particularly Korean and Chinese students, gave less positive ratings for the college's reputation and perceived the college to be more expensive than other groups; (7) 76% of Hispanic students felt that the college had a good reputation, the most of any group; and (8) younger students also tended to be more critical than older students when judging the college as accepting, comfortable, friendly, and personal.
