I am proud to announce that the Quality Enhancement Plan (QEP) Impact Report submitted to the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Colleges (SACS COC) in the fall of 2011 has been accepted! The Committee reviewing the report noted, “The Quality Enhancement Plan Impact Report adequately and appropriately addressed all the required elements in the Report. The QEP dealt with critical thinking across the curriculum. The project was an ambitious undertaking, with strong institutional buy-in. The assessments of the outcomes were adequately documented and on target. The institution is to be applauded for the success and the commitment to the QEP.”
We could not have asked for a better response. I want to thank Dr. Jack Bagwell and Taunya Paul for their leadership and the ACTiON Team members Chris Cimino, Martin Grant, Ed Moore, Shelly Myers, Sue Tatro, and Michele Wells for all their hard work on the QEP initiatives! All faculty and staff are to be commended for a job well done for their work on improving students’ critical thinking skills as part of the QEP!

Congratulations to the College and to the QEP Team! The Team really put their hearts into this project--especially in the early years of developing our critical thinking model and providing the framework for measuring and documenting the results. I can see our CT model becoming a standard for others. Well done!
This IS great news. Thank you QEP team!!
Job fantastically well done! Kudos!
I would like to say thank you to all the faculty and staff who created rubrics to assess critical thinking skills, collected the data, and reported departmental data each year. You all are the ones who did the heavy lifting! Thanks for making it happen.
