Humboldt State Gets Reaccredited

HUMBOLDT STATE UNIVERSITY HAS BEEN REACCREDITED BY THE WESTERN ASSOCIATION OF SCHOOLS AND COLLEGES UNTIL 2019.
THE COMMISSION PRAISED HUMBOLDT STATES’ “REMARKABLE TRANSFORMATION” BUT WANTS TO MAKE SURE THE UNIVERSITY CAN SUSTAIN THE CHANGES.
THE COMMISSION ALSO WANTS TO SEE MORE DIVERSITY ON CAMPUS.
AT THE beginning OF THE LAST SCHOOL YEAR, ONLY 3% OF THE UNDERGRADUATE CLASS WAS AFRICAN AMERICAN. HUMBOLDT STATE’S PRESIDENT ROLLIN RICHMOND SAYS HE WAS PLEASED WITH THE ANNOUNCEMENT BUT KNOWS THERE’S MORE WORK TO BE DONE.

HUMBOLDT STATE IS REQUIRED TO SUBMIT AN INTERIM REPORT IN NOVEMBER OF 2013, BUT PRESIDENT RICHMOND BELIEVES THAT IT WILL SERVE AS AN INCENTIVE TO KEEP MOVING FORWARD.
