I, too, would be very interested in any response. Please post to the list serve. Our institution is examining these same issues. Thank you.

Does your institution have mandatory placement for reading? 2. What assessment do you use for reading placement? Do you do a follow-up assessment to ensure proper placement? 3. Do you require a certain reading placement score as a prerequisite for any core curriculum courses? Our institution is examining our reading placement procedures. We are currently using COMPASS, and although we have mandatory assessment, we do not have mandatory placement. At this time, we do not have any courses that require a certain reading placement as a prerequisite, although we do for composition. I would appreciate any feedback you could give me.
