Access and Excellence Committee

About the Committee

The Access and Excellence Committee will review pertinent literature; reach out to other university organizations; and analyze and integrate available data (i.e., National Survey of Student Engagement, Graduating Student Survey, etc.) relating to the Lobo Experience at Sul Ross State University. Using that information, the committee will develop an innovative plan to enhance the Lobo Experience and positively impact recruitment, retention, persistence, and graduation. Committee members will collaborate with other divisions in the university to implement, evaluate, and revise the plan over time.

Primary Responsibility Area:  University-wide
