A fundamental purpose of our assessment plan is program and service improvement as well as to determine the extent to which the institution is fulfilling its stated mission. Assessment at Arkansas State University-Newport (ASUN) is a shared process of intentional, systematic measurement that is used to document, reflect upon, and improve student learning. ASUN's assessment program is an ongoing process. ASUN views assessment as the collective responsibility of administration, faculty, staff and students to gather and use information which can be used to maintain and enhance the quality of ASUN's programs and services as well as facilitate student success.
