My prayer is that we will be found in Him, not having our own righteousness which is out of the law, but that which is through faith in Christ, the righteousness which is out of God and based on faith (Phil. 3:9). \u00a0Please continue to pray for Cedarville University as we pass through this process.<\/p>\n<p>KUDOS ALERT !!! In response to our last Update on Consumer Information, Dr. Janice Supplee took action to make the Consumer Information site more visible and accessible to the public. The link now appears as a sidebar on the main <a href=\"http:\/\/www.cedarville.edu\/About.aspx\" target=\"_blank\">About<\/a> page. Thank you, Dr. Supplee!<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m sorry, but no one offered the correct answer to Trivia Challenge #2. The answer\u00a0to the question\u2014which staff positions are also granted faculty status?\u2014is found in the Faculty Handbook 2.7.2. \u00a0These positions are Director of Admissions and Director of Counseling. For this post&#8217;s\u00a0challenge, we move on to the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.cedarville.edu\/Offices\/Institutional-Research\/Consumer-Information.aspx\" target=\"_blank\">Consumer Information<\/a> website. You can find the answer to Trivia Challenge #3 there. \u00a0As always, the first 10 correct answers will be entered into a drawing to receive a prize.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"On a blistery, snowy, grey day in February\u2014today to be exact\u2014the HLC Steering Committee reached a major milestone. \u00a0Standing on the shoulders of all who have worked so diligently on this project, a few of us finalized the uploading and hyperlinking of our Argument on HLC&#8217;s Assurance System. \u00a0The document will see the light of&#8230; <a class=\"view-article\" href=\"https:\/\/blogs.cedarville.edu\/accreditation-update\/2016\/review-round-4-begins\/\">View Article<\/a>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.cedarville.edu\/accreditation-update\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/230"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.cedarville.edu\/accreditation-update\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.cedarville.edu\/accreditation-update\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.cedarville.edu\/accreditation-update\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.cedarville.edu\/accreditation-update\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=230"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.cedarville.edu\/accreditation-update\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/230\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":237,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.cedarville.edu\/accreditation-update\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/230\/revisions\/237"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.cedarville.edu\/accreditation-update\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=230"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.cedarville.edu\/accreditation-update\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=230"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.cedarville.edu\/accreditation-update\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=230"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
