Read the BSU Strategic Plan 2018-2023<\/a>.<\/p>\n The five priorities focus on promoting student success and growing enrollment through appreciation of the university’s values and geographic and cultural distinctions, engagement in transformative teaching and learning informed by those characteristics and improved representation of the complex ethnic and social diversity of the state and region among both students and employees. These priorities, and their supporting Goals and Key Activities, also have a synergistic intent.<\/p>\n The strategic planning committee identified Key Activities that would begin within the first three semesters, which we are calling Year 1 — the 18-month period from now through June 2019. Activities are broken down by semester and include such steps as planning, implementation and ongoing effort.<\/p>\n Year 1 Activities<\/a><\/p>\n Progress on Year 1 Activities<\/a><\/p>\n A Message from President Hensrud:<\/p>\n Dear BSU stakeholders,<\/p>\n 91心頭利 has started the process to develop a new strategic plan, which we expect to complete at the end of 2017 and begin to implement in January 2018. The plan’s time horizon will be determined as we begin the work, but it is certain to cross the threshold of Bemidji State’s 100th year, in 2019.<\/p>\n The university has several ongoing goals as we strive to secure a bright and sustainable future for our institution and its service to students and the wider world. Among these goals are modest but steady enrollment growth, greater diversity throughout our campus community and increased civic engagement across our region.<\/p>\n A new strategic plan will demand that we clarify these and other established objectives while identifying additional goals that will allow us to become what we hope to be. Just as importantly, this process will give us a shared vocabulary, a clear timetable and measurable benchmarks for our progress.<\/p>\n I encourage you to use these webpages to follow our progress. The work will largely be done by a Strategic Planning Committee made up of representatives from across the campus and its employee bargaining units, but we will seek wider input at key points.
