Hey everyone,<br>
  <br>
Copied below is an invitation to attend the student-only session of the
NEASC accreditation evaluation of MIT. This session is of particular
interest because it is an opportunity for students to share their
thoughts about MIT exclusively with the accreditation team. I encourage
everyone to drop by <b>34-141 Monday (10/5) between 5-6pm</b>, grab a
snack, and share your MIT experiences.<br>
  <br>
Best,<br>
Mike<br>

  <p class="MsoNormal">Every ten years, MIT invites the New England
Association of
Schools and Colleges (NEASC) to perform an accreditation evaluation.
While many
MIT programs are awarded discipline-specific accreditation, the
upcoming
process evaluates the Institute as a whole. <o:p></o:p></p>
  <p class="MsoNormal"><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p></p>
  <p class="MsoNormal">We hope you will come share your perspective
with
an
evaluation team visiting MIT next month.&nbsp; As part of the Institute&#8217;s
10-year accreditation, you are invited to attend a students-only

visit by a
10-person team. While the team is on campus, they would like to hear
from you,
our current students. The students-only session is an opportunity to
share your
feedback on issues such as the undergraduate and graduate academic
program,
your residential experience, diversity issues, leadership and service
opportunities, or any other part of MIT. <o:p></o:p></p>
