Storm Lake University Strategic Plan
This strategic plan, presented by President Fred Moore, outlines a comprehensive vision for the university, aiming to become the nation's leading "New American College." Key strategic pillars include fostering student-centeredness and an innovative organizational climate through improved communication and community building; investing in people via comprehensive human resources and development opportunities; enhancing academic programs with rigorous, personalized, and internationally-focused experiences; modernizing facilities and equipment; prudently managing fiscal affairs and aggressively pursuing fundraising; strengthening board development; and augmenting religious life and church affiliations. The plan emphasizes a redefinition of scholarship to integrate theory with action, communicate knowledge, and apply it through professional service, focusing on societal problem-solving, interdisciplinary programs, and serving diverse student populations.
