520 $a The data indicated that certain behavioral and demographic characteristics may be useful in building a profile of optometry alumni donors that can be used by optometry schools to develop a lifelong financial commitment by alumni.
520 $a The purpose of this study was to identify charitable giving practices as related to optometry alumni donor giving. Seven research questions and 20 hypotheses guided the study.
520 $a The financing of higher education has changed rapidly in the last decade. Colleges and universities have been forced to raise tuition, cut services and programs, and seek additional funding from outside sources. Limited information is available regarding charitable giving practices of alumni. No studies have been done investigating optometry alumni donor behavior.
520 $a A random sample was taken of those optometrists who graduated from the Ferris State University College of Optometry and the Indiana University School of Optometry from 1979 through 1989. A survey was sent to the sample; 106 (55.7%) responses were received from Ferris State graduates, and 80 (32%) responses were received from Indiana graduates. The overall response rate was 42%.
520 $a Of the statistical tools used in testing the hypotheses, the Pearson product-moment correlation coefficient and the biserial correlation coefficient provided significance at the.05 or.01 level for the data. Eight dependent variables were used to indicate the respondents' typical annual gift to higher education (optometry alumni associations and undergraduate alumni associations) and to other gift recipients (church, the United Way, health associations, environment groups, the arts, and others).
520 $a Eleven of the 20 null hypotheses were rejected for significance. No relationships existed between self-reported donor giving and the recommendation of optometry as a career, gender, year of graduation, undergraduate school attended, population of practice area, whether respondents were actively practicing optometry, state where currently practicing, mode of practice selected, or recruiting of students for optometry. Qualitative findings indicated that faculty, instruction, and the development of peer relationships had a major influence on whether or not respondents enjoyed their optometric college experience. Respondents also thought that their inability to provide donor support to certain organizations was the result of loan obligations and income levels.
