With the goals of institutional effectiveness, growth and transparency, the Institutional Planning and Assessment Committee (IPAC) is responsible for coordinating the work of institutional strategic planning and supporting planning and assessment throughout the campus. This includes recommending a meaningful and assessable college-wide plan to the President’s Cabinet, monitoring evidence indicators, assessing the plan, allocating strategic funds in alignment with the plan (as available), and updating the plan as need to align with the mission and needs of the students and the campus.
IPAC should engage with the campus and work with other effectiveness groups including the Resource Advisory Committee (RAC) the Student Learning Outcomes Committee, and other planning groups that oversee campus plans (e.g., Diversity Plan, Facilities Master Plan).
