The institution of Higher Education is an entity that lends itself to the development of highly skilled and knowledgeable graduates as produced through the instructional and tutorial methods of education. We further believe that both students and university faculty play an active and important role in such development and that both have the right to participate fully in the constructs that affect the future products of the educational endeavors. It is also our belief that for success to be achieved in the classroom, and in the wider community following graduation, that the administration of the university has a major role of supporting both the student and faculty in areas directly and indirectly affecting the future outcomes of the students, faculty, and university.
