Acting Provost Waddah Nasr |

A very warm welcome to AUB. You join the
University at the conclusion of an institutional
self-study process that we hope will lead to the
renewal of AUB’s institutional accreditation by
the Middle States Commission on Higher Education
next June. The first draft of the self-study
report has now been published on the
Accreditation Project website on the homepage of
AUB. All the constituencies of the University
are invited to review this document and are
strongly urged to send their input and
suggestions to the Self-Study Steering
Committee. Going over this report provides a
unique and excellent opportunity for new faculty
to become familiar with the institution they
have joined and get a sense of its current
practices, its achievements and challenges. The
history of AUB is one of continuity and renewal,
often achieved under very adverse conditions
prevailing in the surrounding environment. The
past ten years are no exception. During those
years the University has been fostering a
culture of self assessment and improvement. Be
assured that your contributions to excellence in
teaching and research will be greatly valued and
appreciated. I wish you success and look
forward to meeting you on campus. |
