The Board of Trustees of the University of the Virgin Islands is also acknowledged for its role in this positive outcome. Although we have made these significant strides, moving forward, the University must continue its efforts with respect to Shared Governance and attending to, and ensuring, that established MSCHE standards for higher education institutions continue to be met. This is indeed a wonderful achievement and a great precursor for the celebration of Charter Week and the 47th anniversary of this great institution which continues to specialize in futures.
