Duluth updates (May 2018)

UMD Commencement
Commencement ceremonies were held Saturday, May 5, 2018 at the Duluth Entertainment and Convention Center, Amsoil Arena. There were two separate ceremonies. CLA and SCSE and then CEHSP, LSBE, and SFA.

Higher Learning Commission
The Higher Learning Commission (HLC) was on campus last month. The visit ends a year of preparation. The review is required of higher education institutions every ten years to certify reaccreditation and eligibility to receive and distribute federal financial aid (among other things). This ten-year review comes after the University has prepared an assurance argument report and a federal compliance packet. The process of collecting institutional information and verifying supporting evidence was conducted during the past two years.
