James Donahue, President, Graduate Theological Union, and Vice Chair, Accrediting Commission for Senior Colleges and Universities, WASC; additional WASC Commissioners; and Ralph A. Wolff, President, Accrediting Commission for Senior Colleges and Universities, WASC
Last year at this Forum we shared what the Commission intended to achieve with redesign of the WASC accrediting process. We now can review those initiatives that have gained widespread support - and those that have proven problematic. We especially wish to engage CEOs in a discussion of the future of WASC in an era of increasing accountability,as questions about the value, quality, and effectiveness of both higher education and accreditation grow more insistent. The greatest challenge has been how best to assure the quality of degrees and assure the proficiencies of graduates without creating a one-size-fits-all approach. As the Commission opens an extended period for consultation and dialogue around quality assurance, the CEO Forum is a prime opportunity for presidents and CEOs to provide candid input, especially related to the effectiveness of educational programs.
