  • Creating a Roadmap for Success in the 21st Century Strategic Planning Process for MSSU Fall 2009
  • Slide 2
  • 1998 HLC Self-Study Previous strategic plan was titled Strategic Issues, Strategies, and Goals for the 21st Century identified six overarching issues that should be addressed by the college as it began to implement an international approach to education. The entire campus community should focus on student satisfaction and needs. The primary focus should be on teaching and learning. The institution needs to ensure that it has a high quality curriculum that meets the needs of its students and their employers. The institution must become more marketing oriented. MSSC needs to fully implement and take advantage of the distinctiveness of the international mission. Recognizing scarce resources and increased demands for accountability, the college should continue to stress efficiency of operation while recognizing that it may need to be more selective in some of its initiatives. http://www.mssu.edu/planning/

  • 2008 HLC Peer-Review Team Comments The campus has no comprehensive strategic plan and no process in place to develop a plan. The planning culture on campus is restricted to specific offices or programs that have developed a plan in isolation of the rest of the campus. Data to support institutional planning is limited and is often generated by individual offices without a uniform definition of variables. Additionally, discussion with faculty and administrators indicate that data analysis is conducted in isolation and that a number of offices do not rely on data to guide decision making. Without a strategic plan and a culture of data driven decisions, the campus is unable to systematically respond to the evolving environment in higher education. The budgeting process is completed in the absence of a strategic plan and in isolation. Unit budgets are determined without consideration of re-allocation opportunities or unique budgeting needs. Given the historically limited budget levels, enrollment declines, and the funding reduction in 2001, the absence of a plan to establish funding priorities seriously jeopardizes the ability of the university to shape its future. It was noted that the net assets of the University have declined each of the past 2 years. This decline is particularly troubling in the absence of a strategic plan.
  • Slide 4
  • 2008 HLC Peer-Review Team Comments Although the team recommended that the institution be granted a 10-year continued-accreditation status with HLC, it also required that a focused visit be conducted in spring 2011 to review the status of institution-wide strategic planning and the institutions system of shared governance.
