TERMINOLOGY

Banner Goal

The banner goal was established in 2019 to reframe and reimagine the Days-Massolo Center after a dormant period of four-and-a-half years. Every subgoal will connect to meet and support the banner goal, which is to live out and practice the center mission.

• Review, refine mission, vision, and values for the DMC/department. (April 1, 2020)

Pillar Goals

The pillar goals are the functional components that organize and guide the incremental strategic goals. Pillar goals support the banner goal and, if met at a minimum level, ensure center operations continue and mechanize the strategic goals for impact.

• PILLAR GOAL 1: Review, revise, and streamline departmental operations including staffing structure, fiscal operations, and facility management (June 2020)

• PILLAR GOAL 2: Develop and establish a structure to student ambassadors within a student development model (April 2020)

• PILLAR GOAL 3: Review, refine, and establish student organization advising function, fiscal management, student organization e-board leadership, and expectations (May 2020)

Strategic Goals

Strategic goals are the building blocks that support and reinforce the impact of pillar goals and provide greater support for the banner goal. Strategic goals are the microcomponents that, when implemented, provide incremental outcomes and measurable progress. The strategic goals are organized based on the pillar goal they help to fulfill.

WHAT DOES THE DMC NEED TO ACHIEVE THE STRATEGIC PLAN AND VISION?

• For those who read this report to:

+ Consider sharing the DMC’s story and impact narrative,

+ Think about how might you get involved in being a catalyst for shared experience at Hamilton, and get involved, ask the team how you can help, and or seek greater opportunities for inclusive excellence learning experiences or inclusive excellence pedagogical workshops

+ Ask the next question. Is this an opportunity for your department, student organization, or divisional area to partner with the DMC? Or ask the team, how might my department be a champion and partner in seeing the strategic plan become reality.

• Funding. We’re growing and while central resources are held constant to anticipate fiscal uncertainty, we would love to find ways to partner, resource share, or fundraise to achieve our strategic plan and vision.
