[Ucrfacultyandstaff] Opportunity to provide feedback on UCR’s special accreditation visit report

[Provost]

Dear Campus Community:

When UCR last reaffirmed our accreditation in 2018 with the Western Association of Schools and Colleges: Senior College and University Commission (WSCUC), the commission requested a Special Visit in 2022 to follow up on issues that were identified during the 2018 reaffirmation visit. In preparation for the visit, WSCUC also requested that UCR prepare a report that addresses the issues. A draft of this report is now complete and is available here<https://wasc.ucr.edu/2022-wscuc-special-visit> for your review.

The WSCUC visiting team will be particularly interested in assessing how responsive UCR has been to the four issues in section 3 of the report. They also will be looking for evidence to support our statements, so if you feel evidence is lacking in any areas, please call attention to it and/or point us towards supporting documents. Note that the report must follow the organization that has been used in the draft, and all statistics will be updated to official fall 2021 numbers when available and before submitting to WSCUC.

Please send your comments and suggestions to Associate Provost Ken Baerenklau, UCR’s Accreditation Liaison Officer, at alo at ucr.edu<mailto:alo at ucr.edu> before November 5, 2021.

Sincerely,

Elizabeth Watkins, Ph.D.
Provost and Executive Vice Chancellor
