The Office of Institutional Research and Effectiveness will be moving the entire office from 25 Morgan Street (one of the houses behind Rice Hall, down the street from Cresswell and Hathorn Halls) to the 2nd floor of the Center for International Studies, which is conveniently located 2 houses further down. The work study students in the office have begun packing up supplies. The office has to be completely moved by June 20th. Mitzy is out of the office at a conference until Wednesday of this week, and will be out of the office June 22-24. With such an intricate team player out of the office, the main focus as of right now, is getting moved.
We have individual help sessions lined up for June 28-July1 with individual units across campus. One in particular Mitzy and I are to attend will be on Tuesday June 28 from 8-12 noon in which we will be meeting with two units that morning to assist them in completing their IE report. It was requested that I attend these sessions as the OIRE will not be offering help sessions in July.
Its been a great beginning learning experience just gaining the foundation in understanding what assessments go into improving institutional effectiveness as well, as how the process is being stream-lined through strategic planning, and the application of TRACDAT software.
The next few weeks will be full of moving, and not much clerical work to be involved, however I have been assured time and time again, that there will be plenty for me to do once we get moved in. I look forward to making the connection between the two A's(assessment and accreditation) and the field of Student Affairs.
