Given the ongoing focus on accountability, accrediting bodies and institutions of higher education have made changes that have yielded more information about the quality of programs and services, expectations for student performance and the success of graduates. Those efforts continue. We are not sitting on the laurels of our past successes. We know the value of education and, given the increasing costs, are making every effort to assure the public that they are getting their money’s worth.
