BK commented
that Chapter I is in pretty good shape. The cover letter shows clarification
of the plan, whether or not the parts of the charge have been met,
and is short and concise. The idea of excluding some historical
things and creating another introductory chapter is good. The report
starts out with the examination of the mission statement, which
is very good.
JD stated that
the goals are focused on what is needed, and not repetitive. The
1-1Ž2 pages of the university history could be put in the appendices
or in an introductory chapter.
BK commented
that the Table on page 5 has to be included but is also part of
programs/assessments and could be in Chapter III also. History data
on campus and 10 year snap shot is good.
SA stated that
the tone for Chapter I is very concise and short. What about Chapter
II?
BK responded
that if Pauline Hale is able to attend the meeting next week S Avery
can discuss this issue with her. We will need a general discussion
on this. A bullet style lends it self more to inclusion of web links.
Next step for
Chapter I is final editing and publishing it on the web site.
SA spoke at Deans
Council and states that they created a list of other issues/concerns
more appropriate for other chapters. Susan will send this information
to Bill K.
Susan stated
that we need to agree on a common format for all chapters-either
bullets or more literary style. Last self-study was literary style.
BK reminded the
committee that the report would be circulated at the end of summer
to CEC, UCSU, UGGS, Council of Deans, and Staff Council, etc. for
review. Will send out an e-mail invitation to visit the web site.
Please note that the self-study will be publicly available (i.e.,
not password protected) and will be on a separate server during
editing/finalization stages.
