Strategic Planning

The L&C Advantage

Our strategic imperatives and mission statement were unanimously approved by the Board of Trustees on October 18, 2024.

The three strategic imperatives form the foundation of the L&C Advantage, a combination of educational experiences and opportunities that develop leaders who possess in-demand skills and are ready to make an impact on their communities and the world.

Read the plan.

As part of this process, we invited the campus community to craft Big Ideas proposals. Those proposals significantly contributed to the drafting of the imperatives and are now the starting point for developing initiatives and specific goals that will move the institution forward.

That work is now being taken up by the Strategic Imperatives Advisory Council, composed of faculty and staff, over the course of the academic year.
