CRITERION 1.5
GOVERNANCE
Criterion 1.5.: The Program administration and faculty shall have clearly defined rights and responsibilities concerning Program governance and academic policies. Students shall, where appropriate, have participatory roles in conduct of Program evaluation procedures, policy-setting and decision-making.
1.5e. Description
of student roles in governance, including any formal student organizations, and
student roles in evaluation and planning functioning.
► SCSU Alumni Association, Public Health Chapter. All graduates are provided continued opportunities to contribute to the evaluation of the Program through their association with the Public Health Chapter of the SCSU Alumni Association, in two significant ways. First, the Alumni Chapter conducts extensive and independent Alumni Surveys on a regular basis. The surveys, developed and analyzed by the Chapter, provide a comprehensive assessment of the Program, whose results are forwarded to the Coordinators for review. The second means, perhaps more relevant to the preparation of the CEPH Self-Study Document, is the opportunity to participate on the Chapter's Accreditation Committee, which has provided the Department with significant Program analyses viewed as critical to the conduct of the comprehensive Study required by CEPH. M.P.H graduates have been surveyed since 1994 and B.S. graduates since 2007 (Reference File 6).
