Abstract | The COVID-19 pandemic has dominated news, lives, daily conditions of families, economic social infrastructures, political upheavals, and international relations and has disjointed all norms associated with higher education. Universities of all sizes, demographics, and varying cultural identities or Carnegie classification scramble every day to stay ahead of the fray of an invasive contagion. The pandemic threatens enrollment, brings questions about quality teaching and learning, and has resulted in mental health decline of faculty and students, fluctuating directives from boards, and the ever-present awareness that these conditions will perhaps persist for a year or more. All of these "unpredictables" are frightening for institutions that operate from the lens of consistency and stabilized structures. One such constant in higher education is the assurance of quality in operations and academic programming. There is still a public demand for higher education to provide quality learning and experiences to students who will be the problem solvers and decision makers for the post-COVID era. (ERIC). |
