Strategic Goals “Report Card” Reports
The Strategic Goals “Report Card” is the culmination of an annual, university-wide effort to
determine to what extent the Strategic Goals, defined by the Lander University Board of Trustees,
are being achieved. To do so, constituent Units within the University set Unit Goals and
devise ways to measure their progress toward meeting them, and by so doing, contributing to meeting
the University’s Strategic Goals.
The annual calendar for producing this “Report Card” is designed for reporting on a
calendar-year basis in order to coincide with the budgeting process as follows:
