Going Forward The decisions we make will be guided by a set of principles that support our three themes: • Educational Excellence and Distinctiveness • Student Learning and Success • Meaningful Partnerships and Engagement We will apply a five-part test to the options we consider: • Will this distinguish us from other institutions and help attract potential students? • Will this contribute to the success of our current students and increase retention? • Will this maintain the integrity and enhance the quality of our institution? • Will this generate additional revenue for investing in our future? • If this is something we must do, is this the best way to do it or should we look for other ways to accomplish our goals?
