How are we reacting to Governor Parkinson’s call for WSU and other state universities to improve their national rankings?
The University approach is to focus on student success. The Foundations of Excellence initiative completed last year, http://webs.wichita.edu/depttools/depttoolsmemberfiles/academicaffairs/FOE/FoundationsofExcellencefinal.pdf, provided a number of potentially transformational recommendations to improve graduation rates and retention. The Faculty Senate Planning and Budget Committee is considering these recommendations.
