Abstract	Results of evaluating the June 1987 orientation program at the University of North Carolina at Wilmington are discussed and compared to findings of the 1986 orientation program evaluation. Items that were ranked as the four highest and four lowest aspects of orientation are identified. Orientation leader effectiveness is also assessed, along with common items answered by students and parents. A total of 955 students and 581 parents completed a short evaluation form after the 2-day orientation sessions in 1986. The highest ranked item for both parents and students was helpfulness of staff/faculty. The other two items ranked in the top four by both parents and students concerned their overall rating of the orientation program and their positive feelings about the university as a result of attending orientation. The check-in/out process was the fourth item rated by parents. All four items in students' top four in 1986 were repeated in their 1987 ratings. Students rated facilities lower compared to parents, liked the food less, and were more confident than their parents of their own ability to succeed at the university. (SW)
