Key Goals

Community of Care: Campus & Baltimore Phase II

  • Recommend objectives and initiatives related to actions of care for the campus community and Baltimore that are based on insights and ideas gained from MICA’s COVID-19 navigation for Strategic Plan 2021-2026
  • Encourage mutual care and ensure MICA’s ongoing development that lives up to MICA’s tenet of “We model a community of care” on campus and in the city.

Educational Rethink Steering

  • Review the R5 Reimagine/Remake insights and ideas to advance educational programs, academic infrastructure and pedagogy and make recommendations for advancing this work at MICA.
  • Amplify the voice and perspective of students, non-Academic Affairs Staff, trustees, community partners, and others in the development and planning of new educational programs and strategies.
  • Provide broad-based and integrated institutional support for long-range educational planning and academic innovation.

Human Resources: Ideas & Support for a Changed Workplace – Phase II

  • Consider and recommend new and improved ways to support and engage employees based on insights and ideas gained through MICA’s COVID-19 navigation.
  • Summarize MICA’s organizational competencies and relationships that most directly impact and influence its workplace culture during COVID-19.
  • Make recommendations for the Great Colleges’ Action Planning Teams to address areas for improvement identified in the 2019 Great Colleges engagement survey.
  • Suggest innovative workplace changes and practices for the 2021-2026 Strategic Plan.

Multi-Year Strategic Enrollment & Fiscal Planning

  • Plan for MICA to move from a primarily reactive position of recruiting year-to-year to fill existing programs to a more proactive way to design and realize its strategic enrollment goals.
  • Link program development, recruitment, retention, marketing, and long-range fiscal planning within a holistic planning framework.
  • Adopt a self-determined approach in enrollment design and be more responsive to art-and-design educational needs of the world and shifting demographics
  • Design a strategic multi-year fiscal planning process and model outcome for long-arc institutional management.

New Revenues

  • Identify new revenue generation opportunities and projects that can be put into motion within the next three months to a year to infuse MICA’s financial position.
  • Leverage the intellectual capital and connections of the Board, faculty, students, staff and alumni to explore new frontiers to support this effort.
  • Connect MICA’s creative objectives with the financial foundation to accomplish the priorities of the Strategic Plan

Operational Cost Optimization

  • Identify areas of cost optimization in operational budgets and budgeting methods on both institutional and unit levels to gain sustaining financial efficiencies; while the aim is for long-term impact, insights and ideas should be informed by, inform, and help achieve COVID-1 and COVID-2 fiscal management goals.
  • Develop budget analysis and recommendations for the compensation side of the MICA budget in collaboration with President’s Council and relevant R5 workgroups.
  • Identify crossover and inter-dependencies at MICA to facilitate and generate holistic and integrative recommendations and solutions.

Strategic Plan Alignment (Strategic Plan HUB)

  • Collect strategic input from the R5 work groups
  • Consider the input and make corresponding adjustments to Strategic Plan 2021-2026
  • Incorporate these goals into the work of the ongoing Strategic Plan HUB

Student Success Life Arc: Pipeline/Recruitment/Retention/Alumni
