Davis, provost and vice president for Academic Affairs, as the interim president to serve between July 1 and the hiring of a new university president. The board, at a special meeting June 1 at the De Vos Center, also for­ mally accepted the resignation of President Mark A. Murray, who announced in January that he will leave the university to become presi­ dent of Meijer Inc. Murray's resignation takes effect August 1, but he will begin taking earned vacation time July 1. Board members unanimously passed the resolution and gave Davis a standing ovation.

How did the onset of the MBA program affect the ISM program's enrollment? No real impact. They are very different programs with different target markets. 2. Is there an accrediting body for ISM programs? Would affiliation be valuable for the program? How will COB accreditation affect the ISM program? No accrediting body to our knowledge. COB accreditation is necessary for all COB programs for the same reasons ... college respect and public perception of integrity. 3. If 9/11 reduced international enrollment in the ISM program after 2001, what dropped domestic enrollment? Outsourcing. It gutted the lower tier of the IT jobs and the bad press exasperated student concern with IT as a viable career choice and even career path for IT professionals. 4. What kind of support has the program received from International Programs? What efforts in recruiting internatii:.mally has ISM made on its own? International programs were a vital and indispensable service for our international grad students. Services from admission, transcript translation, keeping us abreast of INS regulations, issuing student VISAs, approval for OPTs, dealing with CPT issues, even acting on behalf of the university on legal issues affecting internationals. The ISM has made no efforts in international recruiting, nor are such plans under consideration currently. 5. What suggestions do program faculty have for marketing the ISM program? For improving Ferris' image? We are just now starting to address marketing issues.
