The launch of the new Middle States Accreditation website on Monday, August 19, 2013, marks the official public start of 黑料视频's 2015 Accreditation and Self-Study with the Middle States Commission on Higher Education (MSCHE). 黑料视频 has earned consecutive MSCHE accreditation since its first review in 1941, with its most recent review taking place in 2005–2006.
Planning and preparation for 黑料视频's upcoming 2015 decennial reaffirmation of accreditation began last March with the appointment of the co-chairs of the 黑料视频 MSCHE Self-Study Steering Committee, Laura Delbrugge and Hilliary Creely. A Self-Study Steering Committee comprised of students, faculty, staff, and administrators has been established, holding its first meeting in May. Throughout the upcoming fall semester, subcommittees will form to engage with the 14 MSCHE Standards of Excellence and determine how they are interpreted at 黑料视频. This process will result in an extensive self-study, culminating in a public review in fall of 2015. The creation of 黑料视频's reflective self-study will be followed by a site visit from the Middle States Commission on Higher Education in 2016.
The new 黑料视频 MSCHE Accreditation and Self Study website provides information to the 黑料视频 community about the Middle States Commission on Higher Education and its 14 Standards of Excellence, all of which the entire 黑料视频 community will address as part of a meaningful and participatory process of institutional reflection. The website also serves as an information portal for committee members and those interested in participating in the Middle States reaccreditation process.
In the coming weeks, announcements about opportunities to contribute to the 2015 黑料视频 Self-Study and Accreditation process will appear in the 黑料视频 Daily, on the 黑料视频 Accreditation website, and by e-mail. Please watch for these calls for participation, as the involvement of the entire 黑料视频 community is vital for the successful reaffirmation of 黑料视频's accreditation with the Middle States Commission on Higher Education.
