Prioritization Notes

Level 2 (Business Math Science and Technology, AVP Office)

Costs are not fully determined. It depends upon the scope of implemntation of support for under-prepared students. If Title III grant is obtained, this initiative would be covered. If Title III grant is not obtained, this is a worthwhile and important initiative.

Level 3 (Academic Affairs and Student Services, Provost, VP Office)

Combined Academic Affairs initiative. BMST and Liberal Arts. The reason for initially low ranking is that it is not department specific. However, it is an initiative central to the Academic Master Plan.

Level 4 (PBIE Committee)

A continued observation of faculty at SUNY Orange is how under-prepared students are for college work. The Developmental Oversight Team has spent a lot of time the last few years considering how to best serve this population of students. The three components of this initiative would help the under-prepared student to be more academically successful by expanding support for the Learning Communities, expanding the post-semester interventions for students receiving an H grade in developmental courses and piloting a pre-semester intervention for students placing into developmental writing and math. This initiative directly supports the new theme of Under-prepared Students in the recently update Academic Master Plan and would greatly assist in the retention efforts of the institution.
