The Assessment Program at TCNJ is a template for chapter success. There are certain criteria that each chapter must complete each semester as a bare minimum, as well as opportunities to exceed the expectations. The Assessment Program is due at the end of every semester, and it establishes a set of expectations in multiple areas:
- Academics
- Basic Standards & Operations
- College Required Meetings/Trainings
- Campus Leadership & Involvement
- Internal Chapter Performance
- Membership Development
- Community Service
- Philanthropy
Successful organizations use the program to guide their chapter’s activities and programming to create a fulfilling and unique experience as a part of TCNJ’s fraternity and sorority community. The Office of Student Life also uses the Assessment Program to recognize outstanding organizations and individuals for their efforts and accomplishments.
Most organizations work on their Assessment Program as the semester progresses. The program also ensures that every organization is able to reflect and improve upon areas where they may struggle. This will allow your organization to have an honest conversation about where your chapter is, where you want it to go, and how you will get there. The program also establishes that organizations strive to continuously improve and are open to new ideas and new programs.
In Fall 2023, a new version of the Assessment Program was rolled out. Below are the links to the current semesters Assessment Program sheet, as well as the links to the various templates provided and forms that should be submitted. We’ve also provided a PDF version of the Overall Submission Form so that chapters can see all of the questions that will be asked when submitting at the end of the semester
