  • Strategic Plan 2018 Message from the President Dear Lincoln University Community
    Lincoln University Reimagining the Legacy: Learn. Liberate. Lead. Strategic Plan 2018 Message from the President Dear Lincoln University Community, It is with great pleasure that we share Lincoln University’s new strategic plan: “Reimagining the Legacy: Learn. Liberate. Lead.” The plan is the result of a broadly inclusive, evidence-based process that was designed to honor the past while looking forward to the future. At its core is a focus on student success through reinvestment in our roots as a liberal arts institution. The plan acknowledges that the liberal arts’ use of curricular and co-curricular opportunities as the vehicles for honing essential skills like critical thinking, speaking, writing and problem solving remains the best approach for preparing graduates to thrive. This is especially the case given the unprecedented market shifts so characteristic of this global, 21st century knowledge-based economy. The plan has two broad aims. First, it endeavors to operationalize Lincoln University’s distinctive place as a world-class liberal arts institution. This will include maximizing our approach to the liberal arts by reviewing, revising and investing in curricular and co-curricular opportunities and by grounding this education in the historical context of our University. The second aim is to garner the resources needed to achieve our educational goals. The plan highlights objectives related to investments in students, faculty and staff, as well as the diversification of revenue sources. This plan is structured to lead you through six key areas: the University’s history, the mission & vision, strategic themes, the planning process, the planning context and strategic opportunities.
