  • Elon, Draft 10
    Acknowledgement and Thanks We appreciated the opportunity to meet with the Elon University students, both sorority/fraternity members and non-affiliated students, as well as everyone on the faculty and staff who made time for this important assessment project. It was obvious that all involved understand and appreciate the importance of this fraternity and sorority community and want to ensure its success in becoming a distinct leader in fraternity and sorority governance and programs. We would like to especially thank Dr. Smith Jackson and Mr. Rex Waters for coordinating our visit. We appreciated the opportunity to meet with the members of the Blue Ribbon Committee, faculty, university and town police, and division of student life staff. We were honored to spend time with University President Lambert. During our meeting, he spoke of the Elon Commitment which in part dedicates the University to strive “passionately in the preparation of global citizens, civic engagement, and preparing our students for meaningful lives of work and service.” He mentioned that he would like to see the sorority / fraternity community step-up their commitment to excellence and to become known as a top tier sorority / fraternity community. Dr. Lambert asked the assessment team, in-light of this pursuit of excellence goals, “How do we change the collective culture of the campus fraternity and sorority community to embrace learning?” This Coalition Assessment Project process calls for follow-up on the campus with a Blue Ribbon Committee, composed of members of
