  • In light of ETBU’s commitment to the development of the whole student, the University has selected a Quality Enhancement Plan (QEP) as a part of its SACSCOC reaffirmation process entitled Thrive: Cultivating Student Success through Intentional Mentoring. Each spring, the Faith Integration Committee recommends a book for the faculty and staff to read together. This year, the committee decided to recommend a book that will help us prepare for our upcoming QEP, Cultivate by Jeff Myers. Reading groups will meet once a week for 10 weeks. If you are willing to serve in a mentoring role for students and to participate in a reading group, we would like to provide you with a copy either in paperback or audiobook (mp3) format. Please contact eprevost@etbu.edu by Friday, February 1.
     
  • As a part of ETBU's 10-year reaffirmation, QEP requires the University to identify a Quality Enhancement Plan. In order to provide all staff with an understanding of this program and ways to be involved, the Office of Academic Affairs is hosting required, brief overview presentations at the following times.
