Strength and Weaknesses

During the fall of 2001, the Chancellor appointed a task force to analyze the institution’s strengths and weaknesses using the evidence gathered for the 1998-99 selfT-study. The efforts of this task force, which integrated the input of all sectors of the university, produced a document entitled, Analysis of Strengths and Weaknesses by Areas to Measure Educational and Institutional Effectiveness (Oct. 2001).
