Eureka College Strategic Plan 2022-2025

The 2022-2025 Strategic Plan, "Bold, New Horizons," for Eureka College addresses challenges facing higher education, particularly for small, private liberal arts colleges. The plan prioritizes four key initiatives: (a) creating a future-ready liberal arts college through innovation, signature programs, and strategic partnerships; (b) achieving institutional sustainability by balancing program offerings, diversifying revenue streams, and implementing a campus-wide sustainability model; (c) improving student outcomes by enhancing retention efforts, career development, and workforce readiness; and (d) strengthening the Eureka College brand and experience through a comprehensive marketing and communication strategy. Key performance indicators include sustained growth, improved financial position, and increased graduation and placement rates. The plan aims to position Eureka College as a leader among small private liberal arts colleges.
