strategic planning process is nearing completion. As with previous plans, an expanded Loyola Conference comprises the Steering Committee. The planning process began in October 2006 and it is anticipated that the Board of Trustees will approve the plan on October 8, 2008. To keep the campus community informed about the planning process, this webpage is updated frequently. For an overview of upcoming community involvement, please view the calendar. For an overview of community involvement to date, please view the historical calendar. The Plan's overarching goal is that Loyola will be the leading comprehensive Catholic university in the nation. We cannot fully achieve our potential of being the leading comprehensive Catholic university without reflecting upon and considering the role of our Core Values, which have defined us in the past. These values will continue to be the guiding force behind all future endeavors. Our success also relies on continued commitment to several particularly significant and noteworthy ongoing initiatives, which were begun under previous strategic plans. The current draft is organized into five key areas critical to Loyola's continuing achievement,
these initiatives focus on Undergraduate Education, Graduate Education, Faculty Development,
Community Engagement, and Athletics. The plan also contains three appendices addressing Key Indicators of Success, Operational Assumptions, and Resource Requirements and Funding Sources.
Throughout the planning process, there have been opportunities for consituency-based groups to provide structured feedback. The online Discussion Board continues to provide an additional way in which interested members of the campus community can provide feedback. Additionally, background documents, Fr. Linnane's letter to the community regarding the designation change, and other useful reports can be accessed online. If you have any suggestions for additional reports to be posted, please send your requests to Emilie Aguilar. Last updated on September 4, 2008. |
