Accreditation The College of the Marshall Islands is accredited by the Accrediting Commission for Community and Junior Colleges (ACCJC) of the Western Association of Schools and Colleg- es (WASC). History The community college now known as the College of the Marshall Islands came into offi- cial existence when the Board of Regents of the Community College of issued its charter on October 10, 1989, designating it as the College of Micronesia-Majuro. Less than two years later, in January 1991, it was given its present name and accredited by the Accrediting Commission for Com- munity and Junior Colleges. In April 1993, CMI became an independent entity with its own Board of Regents and was chartered to serve as the post-secondary agency for the RMI. As an institution, CMI can trace its origins to several earlier programs. The oldest of these was a school of nursing established by the Trust Territory of the Pacific Islands. Begun on Moen Island in Chuuk in 1953, it was later moved to Pohnpei, then to , then to in the College of the Marshall Islands—Factbook 2017 5

About CMI

History - Continued Northern Marianas, and finally, in 1986, to Majuro. This School of Nursing was affiliated with the University of in 1972 to confer the Associate of Science degree in Nursing. In 1975, the Trust Territory Department of Public Health assigned responsibility for the school to the Community Col- lege of Micronesia under the Trust Territory Department of Education. Responsibility was then shift- ed to the Board of Regents of the College of Micronesia in 1978. The origins of the elementary education courses at CMI can be traced to the Micronesia Teacher Education Center, opened in 1963 on Pohnpei for in-service instruction. This center soon established a branch on Majuro, known as the Marshall Islands Teacher Education Center. In 1970 the High Commissioner of the Trust Territory issued a directive making the educational centers into the Community College of Micronesia (CCM). Majuro’s program then became an extension of CCM, offering pre-service elementary teacher education. Three years later it added a Curriculum, Learn- ing, and Training Center which awarded graduates a two-year degree in education. The dual focus of this Center was on teacher education and curriculum development. Curriculum development cov- ered most elementary subjects and was tested in Majuro’s Rita Elementary School. In 1990 the pro- gram, now called the Continuing Education Center, ceased to be an extension of the Community College of Micronesia and was renamed the CMI Division of Instructional Services. A third component dates from 1981, when the Community College of Micronesia, based in Pohnpei, now COM, was awarded U.S. Land Grant status. It began operations on Majuro in 1983, of- fering non-credit courses in agriculture and home economics, among others, and it continues to do so. By 1987, all three programs – nursing, education, and the Land Grant extension – were housed together in Majuro on the present College campus. In 1988, they were integrated under a single administrator by directive of the College of Micronesia Board of Regents. In 1989, they were com- bined to constitute the College of Micronesia-Majuro, which became independent in April 1993 as the College of the Marshall Islands. In 2006, the College entered a phase of rapid improvement in facilities, including the opening of new Residence Hall facilities (2007), Tolemour Hall -- a new Math, Science and Nursing Building with a state-of-the-art Simulation Nursing Laboratory (2008). Since then, the College built a new energy building housed in the Physical Plant. Another classroom building, Wapepe Hall was added in 2009. The inside of Rebellip and deBrum Halls was completed in 2010. The new Administra- tion Building which houses the Office of the President, the Board of Regents Conference Room, Fi- nancial Affairs and Business Services, as well as Human Resources was completed in 2011. The Col- lege Center, which contains the Library, Special Collections, Nuclear Institute, and Instructional Technology upstairs and Academic Affairs and Student Services downstairs was completed in late 2012. The new Student Center was completed in Fall Semester of 2016. Source: CMI Catalog 2017-18

Mission, Vision and Philosophy

Mission The mission of the College of the Marshall Islands is to provide access to quality, student-centered, post-secondary educational services to the Marshallese people. The College also provides selective higher education programming, intellectual resources, and research specific to the needs of the nation and the larger Pacific community. (Approved by the BOR on February 8th, 2017)

Vision The College of the Marshall Islands will be a model community college for the Pacif- ic Island region. The four major components of the Vision are that the College of the Marshall Is- lands will:  be a source of national hope and pride;  provide tailored, quality, educational opportunities;  provide a window on the global community;  serve as a center for research and inquiry for national advancement. (Adopted 2007)

Philosophy The Board of Regents, administration and faculty of CMI believe that quality educa- tion is essential to the well-being of individuals and to the well-being of the Marshallese people as a whole, now and in the future. We are therefore committed to the creation of an educational environment where individual differences of gift, potential, and belief are rec- ognized; where personal choice, responsibility, and growth are encouraged; and where educational content addresses the general and specific needs of the students, the local community and the nation. We further believe that integration of theoretical knowledge and practical experience is a fundamental value of successful education in our rapidly changing society. Achieving this integration of the theoretical and the practical requires a blend of flexibility and consistent evaluation. Students of CMI are acknowledged individually as whole beings capable of reflective thinking and prepared to make wise choices concerning their present and future. (Adopted 2000)
