草霉视频原创 periodically reviews and updates its mission statement and submits any revisions to the senior administration for review and response; it is then sent to the Board of Trustees for ratification, as detailed below. The mission statement must be in accordance with the State Board of Community Colleges Code, 1A SBCCC 200.1, Mission of the Community College System and NCGS115D-1, Statement of Purpose.
The review of the mission statement includes a review of the goals that support the mission statement as well as a review of the Campus-Wide Outcomes that document whether the College is achieving its mission and goals. The mission statement and related goals and outcomes are initially reviewed by a select group of faculty and staff (e.g., directors, deans, faculty, and associate vice presidents). The review team works with the Dean of Planning and Research to draft proposed changes to the mission statement and supporting goals, seeking input from the vice presidents and chief financial officer.
A draft of recommended changes is then submitted to the senior administration who may refine, edit, or redirect the work of the committee. After the approval of senior administration, the revised mission and goals are submitted to the President for approval. Final approval of the mission statement and supporting goals is given by the Board of Trustees.
Once the mission statement and supporting goals are approved by the Trustees, faculty and staff leaders begin the work of reviewing the Campus-Wide Outcomes. These outcomes are crafted to evaluate how well the College is achieving its mission. During the process, some outcomes are revised, some deleted, and some added.
The revised Campus-Wide Outcomes are reviewed by the Campus Planning Committee and senior administration at the Institutional Effectiveness meeting held each fall.
