COACHE is a research initiative hosted by the Harvard Graduate School of Education that offers universities the opportunity to gauge faculty opinions on a variety of academic and campus life subjects and to compare responses with self-selected peers.

From October 2013 to January 2014, The Collaborative on Academic Careers in Higher Education, COACHE, sent email invitations from Provost Gaber to full-time faculty members to complete a 25-minute survey related to academic life at the University of Arkansas. Information garnered from the survey will be used in policy-making and future recruitment and management of faculty talent.
