SACSCOC Update [10 minute time limit]

Bruce Griffiths' notes.

Here is the description of the changes presented at Faculty Senate meeting.

We are happy to say that the Response to the On-Site Committee Report has been submitted for archiving and will be sent to SACSCOC by the end of August. We want to thank all faculty for their time and efforts in gathering documentation for our submission. We appreciate the collegiality and responsiveness as we worked through the response.

Please also share the following SACSCOC policy revisions: Several policies were revised:

A. “Interpretation of Core Requirement 9.3 (General education requirements),”

Revised wording to this requirement was provided to the Executive Council and approved by the Board. It now reads, “Courses in basic composition that do not contain a significant literature component, courses in oral communication, and introductory foreign language courses are skill courses and not pure humanities courses. Therefore, for purposes of meeting this standard, none of the above may be the one course designated to fulfill the humanities/fine arts requirement in CR 9.3.

The institution is responsible for making a persuasive case that at least one of the courses it requires to meet the humanities/fine arts area does not “narrowly focus” on skills.”

“Full-Time Faculty (Core Requirement 6.1 and Standard 6.2.b) Guidelines Proposed changes to this policy included changing the name of the document from “Guideline on Core Requirement 2.8 (Faculty)” to “Full-Time Faculty (Core Requirement 6.1 and Standard 6.2.b) Guideline.” The changes were made to bring the document into compliance with the 2018 Principles of Accreditation. The changes were reviewed by the Executive Council in March and approved by the Board in June.

“Reports Submitted for SACSCOC Review” Policy Statement

A revision to this policy was presented to the Executive Council that included adding “Documentation for an Interim Off-Campus Instructional Sites Committee Review” and related language to the document and modifying the title of the Fifth-Year Follow-Up Report to Follow-Up Report with related language throughout the document. The Council reviewed and the Board approved the proposed changes.

Bruce will also be completing a longer document summarizing his experience at the SACSCOC Conference
