Key Institutional Strategies
After a review of the commitments noted within the CCU mission and values statement and a comprehensive assessment of external trends, internal strengths and weaknesses, and practices and positions of peer and aspirant institutions, the Strategic Planning Steering Committee collectively identified a total of 56 potential key strategy statements. After evaluating common themes from among those potential statements, the strategy statements were reduced and combined to arrive at the following six key themes.
Comprehensive strategy statements were then developed by the SPSC for each theme, and these strategy statements were approved on December 3, 2015. Minor modifications were made to the strategy statements through motions forwarded to the SPSC by the task forces involved in the deliberation on goals and objectives for action planning under each strategy statement and are incorporated into the comprehensive list below:
Strategy 1. Academic Excellence and Instructional Quality
Strategy 2. Student Excellence
Strategy 3. An Engaged Staff and Faculty
Strategy 4. Accessibility, Inclusion, Diversity
Strategy 5. The CCU Story
Strategy 6. Financial Stability and Infrastructure
