Institutional Research, Assessment, and Analytics
The Torch Report
The Torch Report is SACSCOC’s monthly snapshot highlighting the work, people, and institutions driving
quality and student success across our membership. Each edition brings together key
Commission actions, important policy updates, and leadership news, along with stories
that showcase how colleges and universities are putting students first—always.
Through these features, The Torch Report illustrates the meaningful efforts taking place across our community. From innovative
practices to thoughtful leadership, the newsletter reflects a shared commitment to
accountability, best practices, and continuous improvement in higher education.
Together, these stories shine a light on the ongoing work that strengthens institutions
and advances student success across the SACSCOC community.
