Lucey During the past 12 years, the college’s strategic plans have transitioned from a focus on student enrollment (2000-2006) to one focused on student success (2006-2012). Most recently, the plan has been further refined to focus on implementation of strategies to support students in their attainment of degrees and certificates, and completion of employment training programs. As a result of these plans, the college experienced significant increases in degree-seekers, increased numbers of service area high school graduates attending WNC, and improved course completion rates. We also implemented a number of initiatives centered on enhancing student success and campus life. These included the construction of a new library/student center and an observatory, the development of intercollegiate athletics (baseball and softball), creation of a student ‘cohort’ approach (Latino/Latina, rural, veterans, etc.) as a method of promoting student success, and Project Graduate, an initiative to increase the students’ graduation and transfer rates. Forward progress was curtailed dramatically because of unprecedented fiscal challenges facing Nevada during the last two legislative sessions. These challenges produced uncertainty throughout our service area about the college’s future mission and even its very survival.

This increase is due to COVID-19 vaccination rates that remain well below the national average and targeted goals set by the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) that are necessary to end the pandemic. Yesterday, the Clark County Board of Commissions voted unanimously to temporarily reinstate a face covering mandate that is applicable to all private- and public-sector employees while in indoor public spaces regardless of whether the individual has fully received a COVID-19 vaccine or not until Tuesday, August 17, 2021. On that date, the Clark County Board of Commissioners will re- evaluate the data to determine the success of these interim measures. The new face covering mandate will be effective for all NSHE employees working in Clark County inside a building located on NSHE campus or other property starting Thursday, July 22, 2021. More specifically, this policy at this time will only apply to our institutions and buildings located within Clark County. These include the following institutions: University of Nevada, Las Vegas; College of Southern Nevada; Nevada State College; Desert Research Institute; and System Administration and System Computing Services.
