The strategy "Supporting the campus community" aims to engage with students, improve support services, and enhance campus facilities. In the first strategy, engaging actively with students involves initiatives like conducting surveys and forums to understand student needs and creating platforms for ongoing feedback, such as suggestion boxes and town hall meetings. For example, assigning faculty as liaisons helps build stronger connections.
In improving support services, the strategy includes establishing a dedicated office for student support and increasing resources for mental health. Online portals for 24/7 support and workshops for life skills provide comprehensive assistance. Expanding tutoring programs offers tailored academic aid.
Finally, enhancing campus facilities through student surveys identifies areas for upgrades, including library improvements and increased recreational spaces. Safety updates, dining expansion, and green space creation ensure a holistic campus environment. These initiatives support an inclusive, responsive, and enriching campus community.
