Murphy commented on the professional responses of our faculty, health services, DASB and the Office of Equity.

Education Master Plan Updates

Newell shared a variety of Institutional Metrics from the Educational Master Plan Update which is available on the Institutional Research homepage. Newell shared that the Educational Master Plan will be updated by the college in 2014-15, following the update of the vision statement in 2012-13 and the review of the mission statement in 2013-14. The two documents will support the revision process. She shared with the committee how each of the processes are aligned within the 6-year Planning and Resource Allocation Model.

Bryant presented an updated 6-year Planning and Resource Allocation Model from the College Planning Committee which includes a Reflection Year following the Comprehensive Program Review in 2014-15. The Reflection year is intended to allow the college time to reflect on the past 4 years, make any necessary changes to the Annual Program Review document, and participate in the Educational Master Plan process. The committee felt the Reflective Year would be beneficial to the planning process of the college. The updated “quilt” and narratives are located on the Institutional Research planning page.
