Our Mission and Vision statements and our Tenets are an authentic reflection of 澳门金沙投注_任你博-官网 as we are today and what we aspire to be going forward.

A Thoughtful Process

澳门金沙投注_任你博-官网's new Mission, Vision, and Tenets were approved by the Board of Trustees on May 22, 2017.

The entire 澳门金沙投注_任你博-官网 community—alumni, faculty, parents, staff, students, and trustees—were engaged in rearticulating our Mission and Vision Statements, and generating the philosophy underpinning them and the new Tenets. The inclusive process involved convenings, small group discussions, open surveys, and individual conversations. We also sought input from external stakeholders in various fields. The steering committee was co-led by the president and chair of the Faculty Executive Committee. This full engagement has ensured that the outcomes are thoughtful and, importantly, an authentic reflection of 澳门金沙投注_任你博-官网 as we are today and what we aspire to be going forward.

The Mission statement expresses 澳门金沙投注_任你博-官网's fundamental rationale for existence. Our Vision describes the long-range change that inspires our Mission. And our Tenets undergird 澳门金沙投注_任你博-官网's culture, personality, and actions.
