Second installment of Reaccreditation Project video report available

The second installment in a weekly video report showcasing major ideas emerging from the UW–Madison 2009 Reaccreditation Project features history professor Jeremi Suri.

Suri’s discussion of the theme, “Creating an Impact and Shaping the Global Agenda,” can be viewed at this site.

Each video will feature interviews with leaders of the six reaccreditation “theme teams.” The teams were built around the top priorities for UW–Madison’s future, as identified through extensive input from faculty, staff, students, alumni and the public.

The “theme teams” forged recommendations for the university that are being finalized in a report to the Higher Learning Commission of the North Central Association of Colleges and Schools.

Suri and environmental studies professor Jon Foley were co-leaders of the team charged with exploring global opportunities for the university. The video represents an overview of the team’s ideas; find an in-depth report here.

This video series was co-produced for the Reaccreditation Project by University Communications and the Instructional Media Development Center (IMDC) in the School of Education.
