Why the Recommendations 4P Analysis, Promotion Stands Out SWOT Analysis
Strengths: Price Point, Community Living, Location, Weaknesses: Not able to retain over the year let alone
year to year, Almost No Promotion, No one knows about them, Website does not “feature” the coops.
Opportunities: More Promotion, Extensions, Legacy, Use of University Resources
Threats: Large number of other housing options that include more privacy and possibly better pricing and autonomy

All Coop Weekend
Let’s Revamp It!Not just One
Do 2 in the summer, either with the START program or separately
Do 1 each term so that students looking at campus during their Jr/Sr Years of High School get a really good look at what the Cooperatives are.

“ Members keep leaving!!! ”
•During Fall term co-ops are always above 90% occupancy
•During Winter term co-ops fall to about 85%
•During Spring term co-op drop to about 80%
(Dixon Lodge fell well below 50% capacity last spring term!)
![Page 32: OSU’s Cooperative Houses Presented By: Jen Manlig, Matt Clark, Amy Daggett, Summer Warrick](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062719/56649ee85503460f94bf94ea/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Why Members are leaving
1.) The alternatives are more appealing
2.) The experience is not what was expected
3.) Struggling academically
Greek Life or Dorms
Bored
Poor G.P.A.

•Notice that rent has been raised $75 dollars a month.
•$75 X members X months
•The rent is still $217 below the Corvallis average of 586 per month
•The rent is also lower then both the Resident Halls and any Greek Housing

Competing with the alternatives
•More Food Options -numerous meal choices (ex. Mexican vs. Italian)
*Upgrade facilities- Basketball courts- Function Rooms- Game Rooms- General appearance and character
- (Get rid of sleeping porches in future) -etc
*Develop a name for themselves

The experience is not what was expected
“Market and Experience, not a living arrangement!”
•Have house social chairs come up with more functions
•Offer more athletic options to members
•Offer more Philanthropic Activities to members
•Make sure there is a sense of unity and belonging
-Co-ops are often seen as having all of the drawbacks of Greek Life and Residence Hall Life, with none of their advantages.
-The goal is to make sure people know what they are joining, and then making it an experience that they will enjoy during their years at Oregon State.

Struggling Academically
THE BOTTOM LINEIf members fail out of college,……………………….they can’t pay rent.
•Grade Partners (house points, which will be discussed later)
•Study Tables ( possible with co-op of opposite sex)
