GREETINGS, ASSESSMENT OF ADVISING (ASAC) COMMISSION MEMBERS!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

CONGRATULATIONS TO OUR INCOMING COMMISSION CHAIR!

The votes are in and ASAC members have elected Victor Macaruso from the University of Wisconsin-Madison as the incoming commission chair (2004–2006 term). Victor has been a steering committee member for the last three years and has been instrumental in the development of the Assessment Commission survey. The survey results will be presented at the 2004 National Conference – "The Status of the Assessment of Advising on College and University Campuses" will be a “must-see” presentation.
