The campus community is invited to comment on the draft Self-Study. Please click Self-Study Draft Chapters to view the chapters.
Please submit your comments or suggestions by Monday, December 7, 2009.
Also of note: Two Open Forums will be held this month where you may learn more about the self-study process and provide input. The Forums are co-sponsored by the Self-Study Steering Committee, the Office of the President, and the University Senate, and will be held on:
- Monday, November 23rd, 3:30-5:00pm, Campus Center 375
- Tuesday, November 24th, 10:00-11:30am, Campus Center Assembly Hall
Based on the feedback received, the Self-Study will be edited and submited to Middle States in early January 2010. In March, there will be a visit from an external review team, and we hope you will take the time to participate in that visit as well. More details will be available about the visit from the external review team as we get closer to that time period.
If you have questions about the process thus far, please feel free to contact either of the co-chairs for the Self-Study, Dr. Sue R. Faerman, Vice Provost for Undergraduate Education and Distinguished Teaching Professor, or Dr. Steven Messner, Distinguished Teaching Professor; or Dr. Bruce Szelest, Assistant Vice President for Institutional Research, Planning, and Effectiveness, who has provided the staff support for this study.
