NWCCU ACCREDITATION - Standard Six (Governance and Administration)
MSU is undergoing the Northwest Commission on Colleges and Universities accreditation process. A self study, and site visit, are required every ten years and the last took place in 1999. The Standards being addressed are available at www.nwccu.org. MSU has appointed committees to work on each Standard. All campus constituents will be asked to participate in giving input into the self study via, for instance, groups like CEPAC-Staff Senate, as well as through surveys and other activities.
