NEASC asks visiting teams to assess strengths and concerns, as well as to offer appropriate suggestions or advice that may relate directly or indirectly to the standards of accreditation. This section of the report reflects the findings of a summary compliance audit. This audit required that members of the team read the self-study carefully, sample documents relevant to statements made in the self-study, observe conditions on campus, and pose questions to officers of the College, Trustees, and members of the faculty, staff, and student body. The report is intended to commend exemplary practices and, where necessary, suggest strategies for improvement.
