Sustaining and Strengthening a Community of Inquiry
Reaccreditation 2003 
Thank you to all in the St. Olaf community who welcomed our review team during their recent visit to campus:
Dr. Jim Swartz, Grinnell College
Dr. Bob Bottoms, DePauw University
Dr. Mike Edmonds, Colorado College
Dr. Ferol Menzel, Wartburg College
Dr. Neal Sobania, Hope College
The visit went well and the review team was complimentary about the open and forthcoming nature of their formal and informal meetings with staff, students, faculty and administration.
A draft report from the review team is expected by June 1st, with an institutional response from St. Olaf to follow. A final report from the review team is anticipated by early July.
There are a number of links below which will familiarize you with the St. Olaf self-study team, the self-study proposal and the requirements from the HLC/NCA. You may also be interested in the 1992 Self-Study.
