Please note that assured reports are still subject to review by AASHE staff prior to publication, which may require additional revisions. AASHE reserves the right to withhold points for this credit if it is determined that the assurance process was clearly unsuccessful in identifying and resolving inconsistencies or errors (e.g., when AASHE staff identify a significant number of issues that were either not mentioned in the completed review template or not resolved successfully).

Has the institution completed an assurance process that provides independent affirmation that the information in its current STARS report is reported in accordance with credit criteria?:

The name, title, and organizational affiliation of each reviewer:
Cassie Austin is a UD graduate student obtaining a Master's in Public Administration. She worked as a graduate intern for Facilities Management to complete the internal review which was completed in January 2022.

A brief description of the institution’s assurance process:
Cassie Austin, a graduate student at UD, was hired by Leah Ceperley in Facilities Management to complete the internal review audit for the STARS 2.2 submission. Cassie's contract was from September 2021 - January 2022. She was not involved in any part of the data collection or input of the STARS submission. She worked through the review template during the semester and met with Leah to discuss questions and progress reports on the review regularly. The review template was returned to Leah and necessary changes were made to the credits. The review was complete by late January 2022 and all reported data was found to be correct and consistent with the review template's guidelines.
