Vision 2015 Steering Committee Charge

The VISION 2015 steering committee will meet regularly to:

  • Report on the work of the five task forces to ensure coordination, completeness, and relevance of their work;
  • Help determine the cross-overs and linkages throughout the strategic plan and accreditation self-study, as well as any gaps between the two documents, and parse responsibility for coverage to one of the 5 task forces;
  • Report back to the five task forces the results of the coordination and other conversations among the steering group;
  • Ensure that each task force is incorporating other participants, wherever necessary, to gain access to information from which determinations of processes and directions may be clarified;
  • Advise the chairs of any complications, resource needs, or other impediments to the overall process of integration;
  • Review the final drafts of unit strategic plans to ensure conformity with the university’s plan;
  • Review the final Middle States documentation for submission to the President and, ultimately, the accrediting body; and
  • Review recommended areas for focus during the capital campaign.
