Institutional Goals
| Goal |
How will the initiative support this institutional goal? |
- STRATEGIC PLAN 2020-2025
- Empower Student Success: Equitably link students with their aspirations
- Goal #3: Increase flexibility for the students of today and tomorrow
|
While the Middle States self-study process has aligned our strategic plan with our institutional priorities, I have selected this strategic goal by which to articulate the relationship and connection. The self-study process, as designed, is ensuring that our College be able to identify areas of improvement and innovation. This strategic goal has risen to a priority in that the College must not only demonstrate compliance, but also attend to the needs of the students of the future, particularly as impacted by the pandemic.

|
The intent and purpose of the accreditation process ensures that the College is meeting its mission and goals. Additionally, through the self-study process, institutional priorities are establish; in the case of SUNY Orange, our priorities will align with our Strategic Plan. |
