Accreditation Org Puts U-Va on Warning

<p>[UVa</a> put on warning by accreditation group - Daily Progress: Local](<a href=“http://www.dailyprogress.com/news/local/article_360ddf5c-43fe-11e2-8241-0019bb30f31a.html]UVa”>UVa put on warning by accreditation group)</p>

<p>Let’s be clear that UVa’s accreditation is not at risk in any way. The regional organization is telling the Board of Visitors that they should reform themselves, but this is not a risk to students or faculty. Hopefully, the Va. General Assembly will also act.</p>

<p>Do I think there is a likely chance in the near future that Virginia will lose its accreditation? No.</p>

<p>But there is always “risk.”</p>

<p>And the warning does involve varied associated consequences and ramifications.</p>

<p>There’s another discussion on this topic down thread started a couple of days ago when this news was fresh. You may have missed this GolfFather as the title was a bit more subtle. I agree with Charlie, this was aimed at the BOV and although not great for PR poses no risk to students or faculty.</p>
