InkTank and the HLC

In 2012 UCO was up for re-accreditation by the US Higher Learning Commission. The design and production of the materials required for the Re-accreditation Visit were entrusted to InkTank.

The following statement about Inktank’s design precedes the self-study:

“Throughout the pages of this book, there are subtle interlocking grid patterns. This grid, and the patterns it creates, represent the structure of the university. All too often a university, as an academic entity, is sometimes perceived to be a place of rigid, inflexible traditions and rules. However, at the University of Central Oklahoma, we see this structure as a flexible support system that enables connections across disciplines and encourages innovation, creativity, and the pursuit of excellence. The position of these grid patterns is in motion, changing from page to page, shifting and building in new ways. This represents one of the greatest strengths of UCO; we are constantly connecting students to the practice and experience of their discipline through its deep commitment to Transformative Learning.”
