twitterUNLV receives accreditation
Friday, July 14, 2000 | 11:34 a.m.
UNLV has received accreditation from the Northwest Association of Schools and Colleges, UNLV President Carol C. Harter announced Thursday.
In late April, UNLV was reviewed by a 15-member team, which included professors and administrators from other institutions.
Such a team visits every 10 years to examine all aspects of any accredited university or college to assess its quality and effectiveness.
Harter said the Northwest Association of Schools and Colleges' Commission on Colleges recognized and was impressed by UNLV's ability to meet the challenges presented by the university's tremendous growth.
The commission also recommended that the university should work closely with the Board of Regents of the University and Community College System of Nevada, the governor, and the Legislature to review the funding formulas to ensure they take into account new conditions, responsibilities and aspiration.
