CREATING PATHWAYS TO EXCELLENCE:

THE PLAN FOR SKIDMORE COLLEGE 2015-2025

SKIDMORE CAMPUS PLANNING

The Institutional Policy and Planning Committee (IPPC) guided the process of developing our Strategic Plan over the 2013–14, 2014–15 and 2015–16 academic years. A strategic plan not only provides guidance for decisionmaking, it also gives us a common vocabulary that helps to focus our collective attention on our most important institutional goals.
