Daniel Seymour makes the case for taking seriously the task of developing meaningful, ambitious, and actionable mission, vision, and values statements at community colleges. What informs the decisions trustees make? What public purposes guide the president, faculty, and staff in their daily activities? How would the trustees and the public know that the institution's resources are strategically arrayed to achieve the goals? Colleges and faculty can too easily be accused of being kneejerk protectors of the status quo. A robust, shared, operating vision for the college helps to make clear how the public interest, not personal interests, determine the steps that the college takes.
