Principles underlying the plan include use of collaboration to improve access and quality in cost effective ways; academic excellence consistent with specific campus missions; and consideration of local, regional, state, national, and international contexts in making decisions. Strategies for individual campuses reflect the following overall objectives: improvement of student access and graduation rates, improvement of the effectiveness of learning experiences, research focused on achieving optimal benefits in both basic and applied research; focus on enhancing Ohio's economic development and quality of life; and development of collaborative partnerships to improve productivity. Statewide objectives include: improving the predictability and stability of state funding of higher education; strengthening the differentiation of campus missions; implementing a funding model that reflects the state's goals; enhancing statewide coordination by providing better management information identifying state-wide responsibilities, and facilitating the work of campuses through technology.
