Do not feel that you must challenge the evaluator. It is always a good idea to have bulletin boards and exhibits that are well prepared to reflect the goals, objectives, and mission of the university and your unit. Check the spelling and the accuracy of the information. We should be positive about the university and our unit. The evaluators will not be seeking opinions that do not relate to the visit or the institution.
Documentation related to planning is very important.
When you identify improvements in your unit since the last visit, be prepared to discuss the planning and the need for the enhancements. Long-range planning documents are perfect reference resources. While the above checklist will serve as a reminder of some of the things we must do, there may still be tasks that will develop before the SACS evaluators arrive.
