Hi Serena,
The Western Academic Leadership Forum (the Forum) presented the 2017 Academic Leaders Tool of the Year Award to Portland State University for its Desk Manuals Tool on Thursday, April 27, in Salt Lake City, Utah, during the Forum's Annual Meeting. The theme of the annual meeting was "Designing for Quality in Higher Education Facet by Facet," and the event's keynote speech was delivered by WICHE President Joe Garcia.
Forum member Joe Cline of the University of Nevada, Reno presented the award to Sona Andrews, Provost and Vice President for Academic Affairs at Portland State University. The award recognizes the institution or organization whose tool was selected from those submitted to the Academic Leaders Toolkit during the academic year for its innovation, problem-solving capability, potential for impact, and replicability in the four-year institution sector.
