Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

Spend the equivalent of 30% of our artist fee budget on powerful residencies that bring the arts across our campus and our community. Evaluation: Letters of Agreement, participant and/or facilitator surveys, number of residencies and participants, number of community partners, additional expenses to host residency. 2: Create a behavior of attendance and support for the arts within our student population. Survey students annually to track attendance, perceptions, attitudes toward arts participation, track student tickets and participation in related activities.

Measurable Outcome(s)

Residency/outreach played an integral role in CSB's season; more than twenty activities provided opportunities for people to engage directly with artists. CSB tracked number of activities and participants, mix of on campus vs off campus events, fees associated with residency, and additional hotel costs. We were able to negotiate no hotel with several companies, reducing costs. 2: A majority (80%) of students surveyed indicated their experiences at CSB have made them more likely to attend arts events after graduation. CSB surveyed students at the end of the year and learned the majority are primed for future arts engagement: 74% believe the arts are invaluable to a healthy community, 54% attended three or more arts events in the last year.
