INDIGENOUS ENDOWMENT SCHOOLS MEETING REPORT (3) POST MEETING SURVEY SUMMARY
The feedback from the attendees was favorable. They gave high marks to the explanation of the updated program reporting requirements and the explanation of how JSF uses the data. The schools all appreciated the transition in reporting requirements that allows them to share alum stories rather than graduate tracking data. The common theme among both groups is the challenge to track alums once they graduate.
Among the biggest takeaways was the discussion on reporting deadlines. Discussion about compliance with their reporting was helpful and thought-provoking. The fact that some institutions have different grant agreements added a level of complexity to the conversations.
They all appreciated the opportunity to network.
Topics that would be of interest at future meetings included:
1. Investment Policies
2. Investment Providers
3. Best Practices that can boost retention and graduation rates
Education / A Powerful force for change
