How will we do it?
By reimagining the college as a global basecamp organized to equip students with a range of experiences, perspectives, and skills needed to take on the challenges of the 21st century. In order to fulfill this vision, we will pursue these five initiatives:
1) People (Students): Establish new pathways to our basecamp for students whose identities and experiences situate them on all sides of the global challenges of the 21st century.
2) Program: Intentionally align student learning within our academic and co-curricular programming with the global challenges of the 21st century.
3) People (Personnel): Attract, develop, retain, and send forth employees, interns, and fellows–especially alumni–as global basecamp leaders.
4) Place: Develop our campus as an inspiring basecamp for mission in Northern New Mexico, serving our students, regional communities, and international partners.
5) Funding: Develop a sustainable financial model for UWC-USA to secure its future as an exemplar of philanthropy-based educational access, educational programming for the 21st century, and investing in a high-performing college campus.
