With so many activities, the semesters go by quickly . Often, time goes by so quickly that I don’t get to acknowledge Chadron State’s dedicated faculty and staff as much as I’d like . At Chadron State, people go above and beyond to make it the success story that it has become . Those of us at Chadron State see it every day, and often people outside the institution recognize it, too . This fall, for example, Chadron State received special recognition from two military publications for its outstanding service to military veterans . In addition, the Higher Learning Commission gave our faculty great praise for their work in an assessment of our general studies program . The commendations came when a team of Chadron State faculty was completing the HLC’s Academy for Assessment of Student Learning, a four-year process that will improve CSC’s already strong general studies program and make the institution well-situated for its next accreditation process . On another bright note, we have had tremendous progress with Vision 2011, the multi-million- dollar fundraising campaign that will provide countless students with the resources and facilities they need during Chadron State’s second century of service . With a solid base of monetary support from alumni and other supporters, we have started asking large corporations for donations .
