  • WNC Strategic Plan Summary
    2012-2018 Strategic Plan Summary Western Nevada College Mission Statement Western Nevada College inspires success in our community through opportunities that cultivate creativity, intellectual growth and technological excellence in an environment that nurtures individual potential and respects differences. 2011-12 Strategic Planning For Institutional Effectiveness Committee Bonnie Bertocchi Sherry Black Catherine Boedenauer Deborah Case Maxine Cirac Ashley DeRosa Renee Magrini Gil Martin Jose Martinez Daniel Neverett Linda Ritter Danna Sturm (Chair) Page 1 Message From Dr. Carol A. 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.

    Started Trip On: ___________________ Completed Trip On: ________________ This passport belongs to: ____________________________________________________________________________________ Photos and facts from: https://www.cntraveler.com/galleries/2013-07-05/photos-celebrate-nation-50-state- capitol-buildings Maine State House, Augusta, ME 04330 Year completed**: 1832 Architectural style: Greek Revival FYI: The portico and front and rear walls are all that remain of the original, 1832 structure (designed by architect Charles Bullfinch). A major remodel in 1909–1910 enlarged the wings of the building and replaced the building’s original dome with a more elongated one. New Hampshire State House, 107 North Main Street, Concord, NH 03303 Year completed**: 1819 Architectural style: Greek Revival FYI: The stately eagle installed on top of the New Hampshire State House’s dome may look gold, but it’s actually brass. The original was removed for preservation and is on display at the New Hampshire Historical Society. A new, gold-leafed eagle was put in its place around 1969. Vermont State House, 115 State Street, Montpelier, VT 05633 Year completed**: 1859 Architectural style: Renaissance Revival FYI: The senate chamber still has its original furnishings, plus working gas lamps, and a “gasolier”—a gaslight chandelier that was rediscovered elsewhere in 1979, refurbished, and reinstalled in the chamber. New York State Capitol, State St. and Washington Ave, Albany, NY 12224 Year completed**: 1899 Architectural style: Italian Renaissance/French Renaissance/Romanesque FYI: The Western staircase inside New York’s capitol has been dubbed the “Million Dollar Staircase,” because it cost more than a million dollars to build—in the late-1800s, no less.
