Crafting and developing the four overarching strategic goals began with reimagining the College's vision, mission and values statements. Over the course of a year, students, faculty, staff, the Board of Trustees and members of the »Æ¹ÏÊÓƵ community engaged in multiple conversations to deeply examine the College’s current statements and apply diverse perspectives to advance them.
