Defining Principles for the Strategic Planning Process
YSU’s strategic plan represents
a shared vision of what YSU seeks to become and
specific strategies to achieve it. An open
and continuous endeavor, the strategic planning
process is designed to guide a dynamic University
capable of responding in a timely fashion to new
opportunities and changing internal and external
circumstances. The plan reflects campus-
and community-wide collaboration and discussion.
The Strategic Plan will
- represent YSU’s commitment to provide all students open access to a high-quality education.
- state how YSU interacts with and responds to community needs and opportunities.
- guide development of annual action plans and budgets, connecting human and other resources to identified priorities and supporting initiatives.
- guide the University in identifying programs and activities that will be initiated, continued, and discontinued.
- establish a vision for achieving identified priorities by YSU’s centennial year in 2008.
