College Goals

The focus of the College Board of Trustees this year has centered primarily on strategic planning. Initiated in August 2006, a work plan was developed for planning that included development of a report card on the completion of the first strategic plan for the college, environmental scanning of the market, survey of constitutes of the college, and the development of strategies for the next five years. The College adopted Baldrige Criteria for Academic Institutions as a standard for the planning.

This year the College celebrated its 110th year anniversary. The week long celebration included a Kickoff Event in the College, Historical display, video & cake for all hospital employees in GSH cafeteria, the presentation of an alumni art piece, Alumni Service Award presentation, and an alumni reception and educational program.
