creditation of Teacher Education, found CSU passed 17 of 18 standards. The standard that the national accreditation team was concerned with was faculty teaching load. The standards for faculty teaching load are 12 hours for undergraduate teaching faculty and 9 hours for graduate teaching faculty. Elsner said CSU didn't meet the standards for graduate course faculty because of the need for faculty to sit on more entry-year committees than expected. A entry-year committee overviews a teacher in their first year of teaching, and has one faculty member from the university the teacher graduated from. Sitting on two first-year committees equals one hour of teaching load.

"Although the national accreditation board will not act until April, going by what they have done with other institutions in Oklahoma they will probably grant us our five-year accreditation on the condition that we lower our faculty teaching load to those standards," Elsner said. Elsner said all of CSU's programs were approved by the State Department of Education in their visit, although the area of staff development will be re-examined sometime in the future. The national accreditation board is primarily concerned with the school's resources to teach while the state accreditation board focuses on specific courses offered, Elsner said.
