Our Process
In 2024, a cross-functional Strategic Planning Committee made up of administrators, faculty and staff began laying the foundation for this important work. But that was just the starting point. This process has been powered by voices from across the college—students, employees and community partners—through a series of listening sessions, working groups and events designed to spark conversation and inspire new ideas.
We officially kicked off the process at our Fall 2024 In-Service, and during Spring 2025 In-Service, we launched the next phase—bringing energy and intention to the development of a plan that will carry us through the next five years.
Developed by our people, for our people
