A brief description of the mechanism(s) by which the institution addresses issues raised by the evaluation (including examples from the previous three years):
2015 COACHE data were used to inform the university’s NSF Advance institutional transformation grant application which was awarded to Clemson in the fall of 2016 – the Advance program is a 5-year initiative. Multiple programs that were developed as part of COACHE directly address survey results and continue to do so with the newest COACHE findings. In addition, The Advance leadership team is working with the Associate Provost for Faculty Affairs to address areas of concern both directly tied to Advance as well as well as those that may not fall under the purview of Advance. In addition, findings will be shared via electronic release to the faculty in January as well as a town hall meeting open to all faculty both on and off campus.
