Slippery Rock University’s College of Education was recently recognized by the Council for the
Accreditation of Educator Preparation with the Frank Murray Leadership Recognition for
Continuous Improvement. SRU was one of 21 colleges and universities in the world recognized
for excellence in educator preparation through the purposeful use of self-study procedures and
evidence-based reporting that assure quality and support continuous improvement to
strengthen P-12 learning.

The Frank Murray Leadership Recognition for Continuous Improvement is named after the
founding president of the Teacher Education Accreditation Council. Murray was a key advocate
for a single set of educator preparation standards to unify the profession and was instrumental
in the merger that created CAEP. The CAEP is an accreditation body for educator preparation
providers.
