slide4. KSU must make its case! KSU must document the qualifications of its faculty
Undergraduate and graduate degrees, as appropriate;

Professional licensure and certification;<br>
slide5. Continue Honors and awards;
Research and publications;
Continuous documented excellence in teaching; and,
Other documented competencies and achievements that contribute to effective teaching and student learning outcomes.<br>
slide6. KSU must Align course content with specific academic and/or professional experience.<br>
