I am in the process of designing a new course for our new MA degree in higher education administration and leadership and one of the activities I will be asking my students to engage with will be an analysis, evaluation, and critique of institutional visions and strategic plans. I am giving providing them with a list of resources/visions, and am asking them to locate their own as well. Here’s what I have so far:
[Webpage] Learning and Living at Stanford 2025: http://www.stanford2025.com/#intro [White Paper] Flexible learning: Charting a strategic vision for UBC-Vancouver http://flexible.learning.ubc.ca/files/2014/09/FL-Strategy-September-2014.pdf [White Paper] University of Saskatchewan Vision 2025: From Spirit to Action: http://www.usask.ca/president/documents/pdf/2013/Vision2025.pdf [White Paper] Institute-wide taskforce on the future of MIT education: http://web.mit.edu/future-report/TaskForceOnFutureOfMITEducation_PrelimReport.pdfIf your institution has one of these that is shared publicly, could you please share it below?

Here is the strat plan for Camosun College. from 2011-14, but still might be useful as it is a community college and the vision may differ from those of a University http://camosun.ca/about/strategic-plan/ Actually, that might make for a good assignment topic – similarities and differences between a University & Community College strat plans.
