Dr. Vriesenga
Your expertise and dedication will certainly be missed. I thoroughly concur that head banging on bureaucratic walls is not recommended. I gave that up seven years ago and never regretted my decision.   I hope you enjoy every minute of your retirement Mike. You have earned it!  All the best! It has been a pleasure working with you!

Subject: [Coehd] COEHD Announcement

Dear COEHD community:

It is with mixed emotions to announce our Director for Assessment and Program Accountability, Dr. Michael Vriesenga, will be retiring from his role effective August 31. Dr. Vriesenga has served COEHD for 6 years. During which time he monitored all affairs relative to TEA accreditation and compliance in addition to providing faculty and students valuable assistance and support. We will miss Michael’s analytical skill and depth of knowledge and awareness of legislation and the policy environment. Please join me in congratulating Dr. Vriesenga and wishing him well on the next chapter of his journey.

Mario
