Next steps are to engage the cycle of program review more fully by formalizing expectations for program review self assessment reports and use of standards, such as CAS; responding in writing to program review recommendations; providing regular updates on progress on recommendations and related action steps; and ensuring that reviews are scheduled on an every 5-7 year timeline, unless directed differently by

  • . What a night! We here at PLU have been reading your blog. What are a few of the amazing things or sights you’ve seen down there? One of the most amazing things I have seen while in South Africa is Soweto (South West Township) and the Apartheid Museum, in Johannesburg, South Africa. At the museum we had a guide to share, historical facts, and personal stories, about being a black South African during apartheid. We watched movie clips of propaganda.

This is a key skill Aust has found to be helpful in his academic writing, particularly in the communication program in which he is

  • presentation takes place in the Fall. The expectation is that approximately 250 hours of work will be completed by the student between June 1 and September 30 on the research project. The figure of 250 hours is approximate, only, and works out to be about 20 hours per week during the summer months (June, July, and August) with a few hours of additional work in September. Each student-faculty team should work up a plan showing how the research and writing time will be organized, and where the research and
