Middle States Update
The University’s comprehensive Middle States Self-study Report, February 2006, was released to the Middle States Commission on Higher Education, the Middle States Peer Review Team and the Fairleigh Dickinson community late in February.
The next step in the process is the visit of the Peer Review Team, scheduled from Sunday, March 26, through Wednesday, March 29. During that time, 10 faculty and administrators from other institutions within the Middle States Association will meet with various groups of FDU faculty, students and staff at the College at Florham and at the Metropolitan Campus. In addition to formally scheduled meetings, the team will meet informally or spontaneously with individuals on campus as they tour and move from meeting to meeting.
The schedule for constituency meetings and general meetings will be sent to the community as soon as it is available, probably after spring break. In the meantime, students, faculty and staff should become familiar with the findings and recommendations of the Self-study Report. Hard copies are available on both campuses in the libraries, in the campus provosts’ offices, the academic deans’ offices and the offices of the deans of students. In addition, an electronic version is available at the following URL: http://www.fdu.edu/selfstudy .
