1. On Tuesday, 29 March, Dr. Michael Reynolds, representing the Middle States
Association of Colleges and Schools, made a one-day visit to DIC. The purpose
of his visit was to determine the College's readiness for final evaluation
for accreditation.
2. At the end of the visit, Dr. Reynolds told the Commandant that in his
judgment the College is ready. Therefore a final three-day evaluation visit
by a team of eight distinguished educators is now confirmed for May 2-4.
3. During the coming month, Dr. Keesing and I will schedule meetings with
each Branch to discuss the upcoming visit, the areas that will be of key
interest to the team, and what will be expected of faculty and staff. In
order for everyone to be as fully informed as possible, two items will be
made available for wide circulation. The first is the College's Self-Study
Report, the written culmination of the past two years' work. The other is
Middle States' Characteristics of Excellence in Higher Education, which
outlines the standards against which DIC will be judged.
4. It is a, credit to everyone at the College that we have reached the final
stage of the accreditation process within the milestones that were established
in 1981. As we head down the homestretch I know that the effort and commit-
ment that each of you has contributed will be reflected in the team's findings.
