SACS Committee Visits AU

By Thomas R. Delamater

A special committee representing the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools (SACS) visited Ambassador University Nov. 6 through 8.

According to David Carter, associate executive director of the Commission on Colleges of the Southern Association, the purpose of the visit was to investigate informal inquiries about the university that were directed to SACS during the past several months. Committee members interviewed university administrators and members of Ambassador's board of regents, and were free to speak with students, faculty and staff during their stay.

"The committee members were cordial," said Russell Duke, president. "Our discussions were productive, and the committee members clearly sought to help the university remain in compliance with the criteria of accreditation established by SACS." At the conclusion of their visit the committee and Dr. Carter met with Dr. Duke and other university administrators to communicate their findings.

"The committee said that there would be one recommendation to improve the university and a few suggestions," said Dr. Duke. "We're confident that we will be able to respond favorably to the recommendation and the suggestions."
