John M. Kennedy receives Association of Academic Survey Research Organizations achievement award.
John M. Kennedy, emeritus senior researcher and former longtime director of the Indiana University Center for Survey Research, has received the first-ever Association of Academic Survey Research Organizations achievement award, which is now named in his honor. The award acknowledges Kennedy's decades of service toward supporting academic survey research. Citing "the lasting impact that John leaves on the academic survey research community and AASRO," AASRO President Yasamin Miller announced that "the AASRO achievement award will henceforth be named the John M. Kennedy Achievement Award."
Kennedy directed the IU Center for Survey Research for 25 years, from 1987 to early 2012. The center provides survey services to university faculty, government agencies, media and nonprofit organizations. Under Kennedy's leadership, the center helped to launch the widely cited National Survey of Student Engagement, an Internet and postal survey of college and university undergraduates at more than 750 U.S. and Canadian schools. NSSE, which began in 1999, now covers a sample of more than 2 million students. The Center for Survey Research also carries out the Law School Survey of Student Engagement, in which more than 80 law schools participate. [Read More...]
