吃瓜爆料

Amy Tweedy works as an institutional effectiveness specialist, serving as a resource to departments across Skidmore College in developing assessment plans and using data to improve student learning and program quality.    

鈥淭he fundamental question that drives my work is how do we know that our work has the desired outcome that we intend?鈥� she said.   

Tweedy joined Skidmore last fall and says the focus of her position is a new one for the College. 

鈥淯ltimately, what we want to be able to communicate clearly both internally and to external audiences is how the College is meeting its strategic goals,鈥� she said. As such, two of her main responsibilities are serving as the Middle States Commission on Higher Education liaison for the College and serving as co-chair of Skidmore鈥檚 Institutional Policy and Planning subcommittee on Institutional Effectiveness. 

Tweedy says she finds the Skidmore community welcoming and inspiring and is constantly delighted by the opportunities available to staff. 鈥淔or example, I find the networking events offered through HR a great opportunity to meet folks across campus,鈥� she said.  

She also loves the 鈥淟ike Sugar鈥� exhibit at the Tang, toured the recent Sustainability Fair to learn about geothermal heating and cooling and can鈥檛 get enough of the soup at the Spa. 

When not on campus, Tweedy rides her lime-green electric bike around town once the temperature gets over 50 degrees. She also loves to be on the water, whether sailing, kayaking or boating, and she has a dedicated craft room at home.
