Sinclair seeks public comments for accreditation process

By Dave Larsen | Tuesday, January 5, 2010, 10:12 AM

Sinclair Community College will receive a visit March 10-12 from a team representing the Higher Learning Commission of the North Central Association of Colleges and Schools.

Sinclair has been continuously accredited by the commission since 1970 at the associate degree level, according to college officials.

As part of the accreditation process, the public is invited to submit comments regarding Sinclair.

Comments must deal with substantive matters related to the quality of Sinclair and its academic programs.

Comments may be submitted online or by mail. They must be received by Feb. 10. Comments received after that date might not be considered, according to commission officials. The comments should include the name and address of the person providing them.

Comments can be submitted online by visiting www.ncahlc.org. Click on the “File Third-Party Comments” link in the left-hand margin.

To submit comments by mail, address them to:

Public Comment on Sinclair Community College, The Higher Learning Commission, 30 N. LaSalle St., Suite 2400, Chicago, IL 60602

The Higher Learning Commission is one of six accrediting agencies that provide institutional accreditation on a regional basis. Institutional accreditation evaluates an entire institution and accredits it as a whole. Other agencies provide accreditation for specific programs.

The commission accredits more than 1,000 institutions in a 19-state region, and is recognized by the U.S. Department of Education. Accreditation is voluntary.
