Is participating in the Foundations of Excellence Launch Meeting mandatory?
Yes. We know that in order for a campus to take maximum advantage of the Foundations of Excellence process, the attendance of at least three campus representatives is essential. One of these individuals MUST be the project liaison; we highly recommend that the other two be the chief academic officer, and an IR/assessment person. In addition, the campus may bring additional representatives for a modest fee. But that is strictly voluntary, and each campus should be able to function at a high level in our processes with the three-person minimum.
