Steering Committee Charge

The Accreditation Steering Committee will guide RFUMS through its accreditation by the Higher Learning Commission (HLC) of North Central Association of Colleges and Schools (NCA).

Members of the Steering Committee are asked to take a leadership role in:

  • guiding the work of Criterion Committees;
  • collecting data that address the criteria set forth by NCA;
  • completing an honest and thorough evaluation of the state of the University in meeting its mission;
  • identifying best practices at RFUMS to align it with our strategic aims;
  • communicating our progress toward reaccreditation back to the campus community;
  • preparing the institutional self-study; and
  • planning for HLC’s site visit in 2008.
