Self-Study Process
Work began on the 2010 self-study in the spring of 2006 with the formation of the Self-study Executive Committee. When creating the committee, an emphasis was placed on academic diversity with committee members taken from administrative and faculty positions from across campus.
As part of the self-study process, the College began a self-examination with a 2007–2008 revision of Northwest’s mission, goals, and enduring values providing the nexus of the process. This also coincided with a major facilities planning initiative. This self-study represents several years of campus-wide work, research, and reflection.
