“Our director of the cardiopulmonary science program, Dr. Mary Simmons, and the faculty are to be commended,” said Cynthia Hughes Harris, dean of the School of Allied Health Sciences. “They worked tirelessly and diligently to have the probationary status reversed.”
According to the letter received by Thomas Smalling, executive director of CoARC, the commission commended Interim President Larry Robinson and the faculty of the School of Allied Health Sciences for their commitment to continuous quality improvement in education.
The next comprehensive evaluation of the program, including an on-site review, is scheduled to occur no later than 2014.
