The faculty committees are  working very hard on a number of tasks  associated with our accreditation work. We have a narrow window within which to develop our next Progress Report (March 1, 2014) and our draft of the Program Presentation (June, 2014). It is imperative that everyone on the faculty participate in these efforts. You have received several requests from committee members for information that is necessary for planning and assessment.  You can be most helpful by attending to these requests before we disperse for the winter break.
