Info

If the issue or concern is not resolved at the department level, the student may pursue the informal and, if needed, formal appeal/grievance procedures established at the college level. Appeal and grievance procedures for various concerns, including but not limited to course grades, harassment and discrimination are detailed in the “Student Rights and Responsibilities” section of the College Catalog and Student Handbook. These rights and responsibilities apply to nursing students in the same manner they do to other students and are clearly referenced in the Student Handbook. Strengths 1. Clearly stated expected student outcomes, which are assessed at multiple points in the program, at both the individual and aggregate levels 2. Incorporation of multiple faculty-developed methods of assessing student progress 3. Clearly established faculty outcomes which contribute to program effectiveness 4. Closed-loop program evaluation system which includes multiple data collection mechanisms, involves appropriate constituencies, and ensures follow-up for program improvement 5.
