STRATEGIC PLANS I – III
The strength and viability of our strategic plans have been key to Dickinson’s success over the past two decades. These plans gave us a shared vision rooted in our historic legacy as well as specific objectives, goals, and benchmarks against which to gauge our performance. The first plan provided immediate institutional focus, and the second plan deeply ingrained defining characteristics and enabling conditions throughout the institution, the third plan defined a set of challenges and solutions that form a bridge of achievement and high pragmatic ambition between the accomplishments of the past and a competitive and distinguished future.
