Quality Enhancement at EKU

Initiated with the 2007 Southern Association of Colleges and Schools (SACS) re-accreditation process to develop a carefully designed and focused university-wide initiative to improve student learning, EKU embraced the theme: To graduate informed, critical and creative thinkers who can communicate effectively. This is represented with the E to the fourth power (E4) to indicate four basic tenants of thinking critically.

Students will:

  • EXPLORE and use relevant information in order to gain knowledge and solve problems.
  • EVALUATE information and ideas using appropriate methods.
  • EXPAND and generate their own ideas and express them effectively.
  • EXPRESS a point of view and develop it with awareness of alternatives.
