Working Groups: Questions
MIDDLE STATES SELF-STUDY DESIGN FINAL DRAFT
QUESTIONS SUBMITTED BY WORKING GROUPS
Working Group #1
Standard 1: Mission and Goals
- How well are the mission and goals known by the various constituencies in the college?
- How are the major themes of Hostos’ mission reflected in the goals established in key divisional plans? For example, the academic plan, enrollment management plan, technology plan, financial plan, etc.?
- Are Hostos’ programs, services, and operations consistent with themes in its mission? For example, how does the college know if it:
- Serves the higher education needs of the South Bronx and similar communities and populations traditionally excluded from higher education?
- Serves a culturally diverse student body and fosters a multicultural environment?
- Provides transitional language instruction and meets the needs of English language learners?
- Fosters intellectual growth and socioeconomic mobility (builds skills such as linguistic, mathematical, technological and critical thinking)?
- How can Hostos better reflect the themes of its mission within the goals of its next institution-wide, five-year strategic plan? How can multiple constituencies help shape the goals and activities of that plan so they are more closely ties to mission than the strategic plan (2003-2008)?
- How does the college enrich the community it serves through its activities and cultural events?
Standard 6: Integrity
- To what extent does the college ensure compliance and encourage ethical behavior among faculty, staff, and students?
- How does Hostos ensure that policies and procedures geared to established codes of ethics and integrity in the academy are consistently followed?
- To what extent does Hostos address and adhere to principles of academic freedom?
- To what extent are members of the college community treated equitably and appropriately, regardless of status?
- Are the current stated policies effective in guiding current practice? Are these policies and related decision-making policies transparent to the college community
