Assessment Steering Committee
The Assessment Steering Committee is composed of administrative representatives from various schools and colleges, including the past and present Middle States Co-Chairs, the Directors for Faculty Development, the Teaching, Learning, and Technology Center (TLTC), and Institutional Research as well as members from the Office of Assessment. The Assessment Steering Committee convenes three times per year, specifically in September, January, and July, to facilitate the exchange of assessment practices and develop strategic goals aimed at enhancing assessment across the university. Furthermore, the committee actively seeks feedback from their constituents regarding assessment goals and progress and provides updates to the committee on the implementation of changes in assessment processes.
