Eighty percent of the Greek community will achieve good standing in Greek Life's accreditation and assessment program "STAR".
Objective
Evaluate Greek Organizations Living Up To Their Values
STAR will determine if Greek student organizations are successful in regards to their academics, community service, philanthropy, campus involvement, member development, and organizational management. If they don't receive accrediation the program allows them to see what they need to improve on.
KPI
Assessment Tool
The assessment reports the Dean of Students Office consistently update throughout the school year when each Greek organization turns in completed paperwork verified by the Greek Life staff allows the department and chapter to see if the organization is performing satisfactory or not.
Greek chapter advisors are also updated after the fall semester as to how the organizations have performed up to that point so that they may address any issues if any chapters are not performing as they should to be able to receive accreditation by the end of the full academic year.
Because of this 70% or more of the Greek community are expected to receive accreditation from the Dean of students Office allowing them to remain active at the university.
Result
Success
18 out of the 25 Greek organizations received accreditation in the STAR assessment program, which is 72% of the Greek community that is accredited.
Action
Onward And Upward
The chapters that didn’t earn accreditation were put on probation meaning that if that don’t receive accreditation the next academic year, they will be suspended for a year. They also have to come up with additional chapter success plans which they must follow to ensure they earn accreditation.
The chapters who earned accreditation were awarded trophies, plaques, and other forms of recognitions from the Dean of Students Office in acknowledgement of their hard work.
These 2 forms of encouragement to achieve accreditation should raise the percentage of Greek organizations who receive accreditation from 72% to 80% this upcoming school year.
