tions that have used the questionnaire.
In addition, housing organizations
and non-profits had similar high
points and low points within the seven
dimensions, which is not surprising
since campus housing departments
are also mission-driven, motivated
by high expectations, and required to
operate with limited resources.
The study also examined whether

learning organization. They should also
assess how they are storing and sharing information; from share drives to
annual reports, how is what people are
learning being utilized and examined?
Departments need to find opportunities
to make the documenting and sharing of learning a part of their everyday
work life. Reports, tools, and resources
should not just be filed away - they
should be highlighted and referenced.
The DLOQ is more than a research tool; it is a means of helping
organizations build and maintain a
strong and pervasive learning culture.
Campus housing departments can use
the questionnaire to examine all the
dimensions of a learning organization,
and results can help tell the story of
what the department does well, what
it needs to improve, and what the
