520 |a The University of Alabama Career Development Program was designed as a comprehensive, university-wide effort to enhance career development of students and faculty. The operational plan included four systems: (1) Academic mainstream system, designed to assist in the development of separate programs within the colleges and departments, (2) support system, to aid the mainstream effort by providing auxillary services and materials, (3) outreach system, to promote a school-community bond, and (4) management system, to coordinate program efforts. The first-year evaluation effort focused on two areas. The first is a description of the actual operation of the project with emphasis given to the project director and three mainstream areas. The second area is baseline data for faculty and students. Faculty attitude toward career development could improve, as indicated by baseline data which reports positive responses from 35% of the total faculty (700). Student baseline data indicate that students feel they need career information and career development, yet most do not know where to seek assistance. Action suggested includes sending career information materials to selected classes at the freshman and sophomore level, in addition to having faculty members discuss career implications of their areas. Future effects of the project should be revealed through changes in the data. Appendixes include letters and survey instruments used in the study. (TA)
