(Community Day Presidential Merit Awards have gone to faculty who have developed and shared effective assessment tools and practices), course releases (assessment coordinators for several large and/or complex programs have an annual course release), and through promotion/tenure decisions wherein program assessment work is recognized by division chairs, the Professional Standards Committee, and the Vice President for Academic Affairs as important service to the College. As part of strengthening Keuka’s overall culture of assessment—both student learning and institutional effectiveness—we look forward to developing a website to highlight our successes and share best practices with internal and external audiences. Recommendations: The following recommendations reflect an overall charge to enhance the use of datadriven decision-making: 4.1 Develop a plan for creating more professional development and training opportunities for faculty and staff to enhance assessment knowledge and application and to learn how to employ Ellucian more effectively. 4.2 Create an Office of Institutional Effectiveness to provide a centralized model for monitoring continuous improvement, assessing progress and tracking change, and communicating outcomes to support decision-making, to increase efficiency, and to enhance institutional planning and budgeting activities. 4.3 Ensure all Program and Gen Ed goals have measurable learning outcomes and established performance targets. 4.4 Develop a communication plan for disseminating assessment data to internal and external audiences that allows Keuka to highlight best practices to improve programs and services, and assessment “victories”. 4.5 Establish on-going processes to collect assessment results and improve on assessment methods for measurement of student learning outcomes that provide longitudinal evidence of continuous improvement directly linked to improved teaching and learning as a result of ongoing assessment efforts.

Standard 8: Student Admissions and Retention Chapter 5 Admissions, Retention, and Support The institution seeks to admit students whose interests, goals, and abilities are congruent with its mission and seeks to retain them through the pursuit of the students’ educational goals. Standard 9: Student Support Services The institution provides student support services reasonably necessary to enable each student to achieve the institution’s goals for students. This chapter provides evidence of Keuka College’s compliance with Standard 8 and Standard 9. Congruent with its mission, Keuka recruits traditional, adult, and international students. Although the College faces a number of recruitment and enrollment challenges, the College has been largely successful in attracting students to four distinct formats, known as traditional oncampus (includes undergraduate, transfer and graduate programs), Accelerated Studies for Adults (ASAP), on-campus Global Education/International, and Keuka International Programs (China and Vietnam). As a tuition-dependent institution, Keuka has strategically expanded its student body beyond the traditional age population as a response to the declining high school student population in New York State and the Northeast, ensuring that necessary revenue goals are met. Tuition revenues are also supplemented by the Wertman Office of Distance Education (WODE), which primarily serves students in the ASAP Program who may need additional credits to meet prerequisite, liberal arts, or graduation requirements. These non-traditional formats have gained in significance since their inception, now accounting for one-third of College tuition revenues, as seen in Chart 5.1 below.
