Lamar Institute of Technology (LIT) is adjacent to Lamar University and shares many of its services (Admissions, Records, Library, Campus Security, and Human Resources) through an inter-component services agreement. As Lamar University has increased its admissions standards over the last 5 years, an increasing percentage of Lamar Institute of Technology's incoming, first-time-in-college, full-time, students have matriculated at Lamar Institute of Technology after being denied admission at Lamar University. LIT is pursuing alternative opportunities to help these student achieve their educational objectives, including transferring to university, since LIT is currently only authorized to offer the Associate of Science (AAS) and many of these students appear as stop-out/drop-out attrition statistics in persistence and graduation rate calculations. At the November 2012 meeting of the Texas State University System Board of Regents, a motion was passed that allows LIT to pursue the Academic Associate of Arts by applying to the THECB and submitting a Substantive Change Prospectus to the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools (SACS-COC) Commission on Colleges with a planned implementation date of Fall 2014. The Substantive Change was approved by SACS-COC and LIT enrolled 176 Associate of Arts (AA) majors for the Fall 2014 semester. LIT has continued to increase its enrollment in Academic Degree offerings with 327 AA majors and the addition of an AA in Business and an AS in Criminal Justice for the Fall 2015 semester.

Participation - Out-of-State Peers Out-of-state peer data is from the Fall 2014 IPEDS report and may not match accountability data because of differences in the source of the data. Accountability measures are primarily derived from institutional data sent to the CB for CBM reports. Data reported on this out-of-state peer link is obtained from the IPEDS system of institutional reporting to the federal government.

As Lamar University has increased its admissions standards over the last 5 years, an increasing percentage of Lamar Institute of Technology's incoming, first-time-in-college, full-time, students have matriculated at Lamar Institute of Technology after being denied admission at Lamar University. LIT is pursuing alternative opportunities to help these student achieve their educational objectives, including transferring to university, since LIT is currently only authorized to offer the Associate of Science (AAS) and many of these students appear as stop-out/drop-out attrition statistics in persistence and graduation rate calculations. At the November 2012 meeting of the Texas State University System Board of Regents, a motion was passed that allows LIT to pursue the Academic Associate of Arts by applying to the THECB and submitting a Substantive Change Prospectus to the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools (SACS) Commission on Colleges with a planned implementation date of Fall 2014. The Substantive Change was approved by SACS-COC and LIT enrolled 176 Associate of Arts majors for the Fall 2014 semester. LIT has continued to increase its enrollment in Academic Degree offerings with 327 AA majors and the addition of an AA in Business and an AS in Criminal Justice for the Fall 2015 semester.

The LIT campus is located adjacent to the Lamar University campus and LIT has a 2+2 B.S. in Industrial Technology degree in colloboration with Lamar University. At the November 2012 meeting of the Texas State University System, a motion was passed that allows LIT to pursue the Academic Associate of Arts by applying to the THECB and submitting a Substantive Change Prospectus to the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools (SACS) Commission on Colleges with a planned implementation date of Fall 2014. This will result in LIT being able to award Core Completer status while increasing the number of students who transfer to a university starting with the Fall 2014 semester. The Substantive Change was approved by SACS-COC and LIT enrolled 176 Associate of Arts majors for the Fall 2014 semester. Success - Contextual Measures 15.

Quality Enhancement Plan, Including Reaffirmation Year Lamar Institute of Technology's Quality Enhancement Plan (QEP) was reviewed by the Onsite Visiting Committee in October 2014 and deemed acceptable to SACS-COC. The Quality Enhancement Plan (http://www.lit.edu/depts/technology/step/qualityplan.pdf), christened the Students Taking Education Personally (STEP Project) was designed to enhance the student learning environment and persistence among a select group of at-risk students. The STEP Project will include intrusive holistic academic advising, supplemental instruction, tutoring, study groups, financial literacy information, financial aid guidance, soft skill development, discipline specific guest speakers, transfer information and other topics to assist and support participants. The elements within the STEP Project will be managed by a coordinator who will provide oversight and organization of the project. The STEP Project will have a dedicated space on campus that includes office space for the coordinator, study space, computers for student use, printers, projection equipment, and general office equipment. The STEP Project participants will be selected following an application process that includes the following: completion of an application, a letter of commitment, enrollment in an instructional program leading to a certificate, degree, or transfer, and have one or more at-risk criteria. LIT has chosen to offer the STEP Project in the Fall 2014 Semester as a pilot project. Excellent Programs 25.
