Over the last few years, our campus community has wrestled with both the opportunities and the challenges on the horizon of 国产剧麻豆剧鈥檚 future. Essential to these future assessments has always been 国产剧麻豆剧鈥檚 core identity as a vital, Christian community committed to fully becoming who God is calling us to be.
Our commitment to 鈥渂ecoming鈥� and 鈥渂eing鈥� requires the hard work of learning, discovery, faith in Christ, seeking wisdom, overcoming challenges and continuous adjustments for relevance and effectiveness. But these commitments and actions are nothing new for 国产剧麻豆剧, as they have been part of our DNA from the very beginning. The history of 国产剧麻豆剧 is filled with examples of changing, overcoming, innovating, and facing great challenges while holding firmly to our mission and calling to be a vital Christian, higher educational community.
Achieving the future and responding to 国产剧麻豆剧鈥檚 call to prepare this generation of students requires purpose and direction to see and assess opportunities and to overcome the challenges before us. Fortunately, 国产剧麻豆剧 can build from its great strengths in academics, enrollment, finances, and spiritual commitments as we look to the future. However, 国产剧麻豆剧 must also build the future in the context of the many changes in higher education. Designing and building a vibrant future in today鈥檚 context is 国产剧麻豆剧鈥檚 opportunity to renew and fulfill our mission for decades to come.
One国产剧麻豆剧 is the university鈥檚 comprehensive plan for how we assess opportunities, prepare for potential challenges, and address the evolving future dynamics in higher education. It will be operationalized, regularly assessed, and adjusted as necessary throughout the implementation and operation periods of these priorities. Some of the strategies have already been implemented while others will take time to fully accomplish.
