Self-Study Subcommittees

Southern's Self-Study Subcommittees

Organized under the Self-Study Steering Committee are several subcommittees. Dedicated to supporting and encouraging the steering committee's efforts and leadership, these subcommittees carry out the necessary functions for the progress of the College's accreditation mission. 

By focusing on addressing different aspects of the Higher Learning Commission's criteria for accreditation as well as the other various aspects of the self-study process, the groups' work to produce a sense of solidarity in the advancement of Southern's mission, goals and values during its accreditation campaign. 

More than 80 faculty members, staff members and students are currently serving the college on these subcommittees. It is through their diligence and commitment that Southern West Virginia Community and Technical College continues to advance in its vision to "be the higher education leader in West Virginia and the region."
