The mission statement is developed through a process suited to the nature and culture of the institution and is adopted by the governing board. 2. The institution’s academic programs, student support services, and enrollment profile are consistent with its stated mission. 3. The institution’s planning and budgeting priorities align with and support the mission. (This sub-component may be addressed by reference to the response to Criterion 5.C.1.) Argument YSU Acronyms List 1.A.1 Youngstown State University’s (YSU) Mission Statement was developed through a collaborative process suited to its cultural context as an open-access, urban institution of higher education that serves the needs of the region. YSU’s mission was revised to align with the Chancellor’s Strategic Plan for Higher Education 2008–2017: Building Strong Communities Through Applied Learning and Research, which called for universities in the University System of Ohio to stimulate Ohio’s economic rebirth by graduating more students, keeping graduates in Ohio, and attracting more out-of- state degree holders. The plan classified YSU as an “urban research university,” thereby emphasizing its mission to contribute to the Mahoning Valley’s economic rebirth and to improve educational attainment in the region.
