    2. First-Year Islanders Texas A&M University Corpus Christi has launched a bold new program that engages faculty to ensure first-year students a successful transition from high school to college. The First-Year Islanders program was born from our desire to create a best-in-class quality enhancement plan that supports our academic strengths within the University’s mission. 

    3. What is a QEP and why is it important? As part of the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools (SACS) re-affirmation process, a Quality Enhancement Plan (QEP) is a carefully designed and focused university-wide initiative to improve student learning. The selection of QEP topic is an important decision the University will make together as faculty, staff, and students pursue one clear objective: to enhance student learning on our campus. Several months of discussion lead to the final selection of our QEP topic. SACS requires that the topic selected for a QEP be creative and vital to the long-term improvement of student learning. SACS also requires evidence that developing the QEP has engaged the entire university community in the process. While a QEP is a required element in SACS reaffirmation, more importantly our QEP process will provide an opportunity for everyone to talk and work inclusively to positively enhance student learning.
