Annual Reports

In Announcements, by , on May 14th, 2021

Annual Report season is here! As we close out the academic year, we turn our focus to reflecting on our work and progress on the university’s strategic plan and student learning outcomes. Our re-envisioned Annual Reports process seeks to provide a more holistic view of our efforts across the campus as it pertains to the six pillars of the plan, including our accomplishments, challenges, resource investments, and plans for the upcoming academic year. With our Middle States mid-point review scheduled for next year and our next self-study visit in 2025-2026, reflecting on our activities also will help us prepare for these critical accreditation endeavors.

The timeline for reports is the same as in previous years to allow for time to read, organize, and evaluate the progress we are making on the strategic plan so we can report on it early in the fall semester:

  • June 1 – Academic department chairs
  • June 15 – Directors, Program coordinators, Deans
  • July 1 – Functional officers
