It goes without saying that we'll exploit IT for research, writing, and analysis. IT also has an important role to play in communication, as described above. To the extent possible, results of the self-study and supporting documentation will be accessible through this site. During their visits, the teams from SACS will be equipped with all hardware and software necessary to do their work. But the backbone of the effort is the voluntary commitment of time and resources by a broad base of faculty, staff, and students.
Committees represent only the leading edge of the project.
The compliance and strategic components of the study will together require the efforts of a large segment of the university community.
