The work of the Academic and Administrative Program Review (AAPR) concluded with the release of the One �鶹��Ƶ report. For updates on the implementation of the AAPR recommendations, visit oberlin.edu/One�鶹��Ƶ.

The AAPR site content is still available here for background on the process.

The Academic and Administrative Program Review (AAPR), launched in the spring of 2018 by President Carmen Twillie Ambar and �鶹��Ƶ’s Board of Trustees, is an ambitious, comprehensive examination of �鶹��Ƶ’s programs and activities.

AAPR seeks to address head-on the challenges facing �鶹��Ƶ and many of the nation’s top-tier liberal arts colleges and conservatories. It provides a venue and an opportunity to build on the strengths of the college and conservatory, refocusing the entire community on what �鶹��Ƶ distinctively offers to its students and to the world.

The 31-person AAPR steering committee includes faculty, staff, students, trustees, and alumni. In a message to the �鶹��Ƶ community, the steering committee wrote that it is committed, among other things, to a process that is authentic to �鶹��Ƶ’s history and distinctive excellence, and broadly inclusive, tapping the full range of �鶹��Ƶ’s wisdom, creativity and experience.

Working in cooperation with �鶹��Ƶ’s regular governing bodies, the AAPR steering committee and its six working groups will gather a broad spectrum of data, information, perspectives, and ideas. From these resources, the steering committee will develop recommendations to be submitted to President Ambar for consideration. These recommendations will address current and future financial needs as well as areas for investment that are authentic to �鶹��Ƶ’s mission and key to �鶹��Ƶ’s future.
