Nature of the Problem Clubs and activities are a popular part of campus recreation for students on the Rindge campus, however FPC doesn’t offer a sailing club as an option. “A sailing club could be a positive thing that would certainly help draw more interest to the aspect of Campus Recreation programming.” Doug Carty

Problem Statement Research is necessary to determine if there is a demand for a sailing club at Franklin pierce College.

Research Objectives To identify what funds would be necessary to start and maintain a sailing club at FPC To determine who would be interested in a sailing club To examine the advantages and disadvantages with launching a sailing club

Problem Identification The researchers contacted the director of campus activities, Doug Carty Concluded that Franklin Pierce College has the resources to start a sailing club An additional club would benefit current students, as well as possibly increase the amount of prospective students

Educational Value in Sailing Offers a variety of unique challenges that could potentially develop the problem solving skills of the participants. Having a sailing club could lead to developing other programs, such as a semester at sea. Sailing clubs teach how to sail and maintain a ship, along with nautical skills.

Survey Development Rough Draft was submitted November 1, 2006 November 3, 2006 it was revised by the marketing research class and Professor Little Novemeber 8, 2006 final copy was submitted Final revisions were made on November 10, 2006 and completed on November 12, 2006

Survey Process Cont. The distribution was done using a non- probability convenience sampling method In addition, the research team used a quota sampling method based on gender and class standing. The surveys were distributed between the dates of November 13th thru November 30th The research team handed out a total of 160 surveys (20 per gender for each class)

Survey Process Cont. The research team went to the dorms, campus center, and the computer lab to retrieve our research 40 Surveys were given out to each class, Freshmen, Sophomores, Juniors, and Seniors. 20 Male & 20 Females in each class

Definition of the Population The population targeted for the study was limited to the student body of Franklin Pierce College, Rindge campus. The student body consists of 1705 students, 817 males and 888 females.

Limitations Time Sample Size Not able to speak directly with prospective students, had to make assumptions
