In the summer and fall of 2006, the Office of the Provost and the Office of Student Services as well as the University Council on Teaching came together to pilot BC's first online course evaluation system. By the beginning of the spring 2007 semester, evaluating courses online, which had been optional in the fall, became the norm as administrators, faculty, and students saw the value of a system that is fast, easy, convenient, secure, anonymous, and confidential.
