dc.description.abstractIn 1977 the Association of Governing Boards of Universities and Colleges developed a Board-Mentor Program to assist college and university trustees to enhance the organization and performance of their governing boards. This study evaluated through survey research this program utilizing presidents and trustees who participated in the program over a three-year period. The data were analyzed to determine changes that occurred as a result of participation in the program and if the program met the purposes and goals for which it was established. Twenty-one institutions, public and private, located in thirteen different states participated in this evaluation. Presidents and trustees agreed that the goals of the program were important and participation in the program was perceived helpful in the realization of the program goals. A positive correlation existed between the importance of the goals of the program and the helpfulness of the program in the realization of the program goals. Presidents and trustees identified several areas where change occurred as a result of program participation, and suggestions for program refinarent and change were identified by respondents. The study concluded with six recommendations including the need for additional study of trustee development programs.en
