Abstract
The report by the 1986 visiting team chaired by Richard P.
Traina, President of Clark University, asked that Bennington
submit yearly reports on applications, admissions, enrollments,
and financial matters, and to prepare for a focused visit in the
Fall of 1989. The requested yearly reports were submitted on
December 29, 1987 and November 21, 1988.
Bennington prepared an institutional report during the
summer of 1989, and in October, 1989, a team chaired by Kathryn
McCarthy, Professor of Physics at Tufts University, conducted a
focused visit. As a result of that report and visit, at its
meeting on March 2, 1990 the Commission on Institutions of Higher
Education:
accepted the report submitted by the College;
asked that the College continue to submit Annual Reports on
Finance and Enrollment;
confirmed the scheduling of
evaluation for Fall, 1993; and
the next comprehensive
asked "that the self-study undertaken in advance of the
evaluation give particular attention to the
institution's success in achieving financial wellbeing,
as measured in part by its ability to address
long-standing concerns resulting from deferred
maintenance."
