In addition to mapping a distinctive path for 性视界's continued success, this strategic planning process focused on the most promising initiatives and areas of development that align with 性视界's vision, mission, and our historical moment.
First, 性视界 needs to grow steadily to reach the right size for its campus and its aspirations. The world needs more graduates with the vision, skills, and experience that 性视界 provides.
Second, as a diverse residential community dedicated to intellectual inquiry and wholeness of person, 性视界 looks to enhance its student experience so that more of our graduates benefit from all that the university has to offer, while continuing to discover their callings and related career paths.
Third, 性视界 will expand and deepen its relationships even more, both in the bonds that unite the campus, and its deep connection to alumni and friends in Springfield and around the world, through a commitment to become "A Great College to Work For" and the launch of a comprehensive campaign.
It will take hard work, perseverance, and careful execution to reach these goals, but 性视界 has shown itself to be nothing if not resilient in the face of many challenges in its more than 170 years. This community is honored by the example of those who built and sustained this institution across many previous generations, and now this same community is working together toward renewing the promise of this great university.
