The primary function of the Assessment Advisory Committee is to aid in the continued development of a culture of assessment at Loyola Marymount University. The Committee will do this through two primary objectives. One objective is to advise the Assessment on campus-wide initiatives. The other objective is to promote good assessment practices through dialogue with members of the campus community.
