Academically, the ACC’s unique blend of public and private institutions continue to lead the way among Autonomy 5 conferences. This was once again demonstrated in the annual “Best Colleges” rankings released by US News & World Report, as the ACC was the only Autonomy 5 conference to place seven of its member institutions among the top 35 and eight member schools among the top 50. With an average rank of 54.2, the ACC led all FBS conferences for the 11th consecutive year. ACC institutions saw 96 combined teams receive Academic Progress Rate recognition awards from the NCAA in May, once again the most of any peer conference. In the NCAA’s Graduation Success Rate report released last November, the ACC’s graduation rate of 91 percent was four points above the national average. Additionally, the league tied for the highest GSR among peer conferences in the sport of football, and a combined six ACC men’s and women’s basketball teams achieved perfect scores.

Ross Jr. September 2017 through September 2018 ASU President’s Report: September 2017-18 | 1 September 21, 2018 Greetings: In September of 2017, the members of the Alabama State University Board of Trustees selected me to serve as the 15th President of this great institution. Since taking office on October 3, 2017, I have literally hit the ground running. The “roller skates” that I donned on the first day are still a part of my wardrobe every day as I work on behalf of ASU. For nearly a year, we have experienced a number of great triumphs and successes, many of which are documented in this report. I have crisscrossed the country proudly hailing the name O’ Mother Dear, engaging and re-engaging alumni, helping to develop new partnerships, speaking to large and more intimate audiences about the many and wonderful things that are happening at Alabama State University. While the positives have far outweighed the “negatives,” we have had our challenges; but we have faced each one with determination, strength of will, transparency and a strong belief in Alabama State University’s ability to triumph over any adversity. I have been able to forge a team of leaders who have accepted every challenge head on and who have taken on the vision of greatness for Alabama State University. The President’s Cabinet meets weekly to discuss the vision and to ensure that we are “staying the course” in every area of the University, from academics to business and finance, to athletics, advancement, security, technology, student success, facilities and beyond.
