Student Services Mission Statement

Dean Edwards stated that the statement was developed to establish direction and purpose for the division.  It will be used to establish plans and allocate resources for the division.  Once the college’s mission statement is reviewed, it may be necessary to modify the student services mission statement.  (From Nov 1 Cabinet Meeting)
