老司机福利社's Mission & Vision Statement

 

老司机福利社 was one of five universities to partner with the American Association of State Colleges and Universities (AASCU) to align its Strategic Plan with the Postsecondary Value Framework (PVF), which serves as a guiding structure for integrating equity-centered, evidence-based strategies into institutional planning. The goals of the PVF are to ensure that all students have access to academic, professional, and financial resources needed to earn a college degree. During fall 2024, a Framework Working Group of 33 faculty and staff participated in a multi-day workshop to become familiar with the PVF, and in spring 2025, they served on five writing groups to ensure that the PVF鈥檚 elements, Access, Affordability, and Completion, were fully integrated into the Strategic Plan.
