Board of Trustees Meeting
The board met as a committee of the whole to receive a progress report on the Equity 2030 strategic priority for Minnesota State. Key topics included a review of longitudinal data regarding student persistence, completion rates, and equity gaps across various student populations such as race, ethnicity, income status, and first-generation status. The presentation emphasized the importance of data-informed strategies, institutional adaptation to changing student needs and resource constraints, and the commitment to closing persistent achievement gaps to support workforce readiness and student success.
