Change ImpetusResearch showed:• The future was dangerous for small
colleges unless– It had a large endowment (we didn’t)– It had significant name recognition (we didn’t)– It was distinctive (we were not)
• Educational marketplace is changing• Stakeholder (students, parents and
employers) expectations have changed

Step 1: Write Strategic Plan and Change the Mission
StatementPrevious mission statement:
Culver-Stockton College is a four-year residential, coeducational community in affiliation with the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) committed to educational excellence, personal development and integration of liberal arts with professional preparation.
Descriptive without distinguishing the College from any other institution
![Page 9: Iacbe 2013 meeting](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062821/58a5e0b71a28abd14d8b5f9d/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)

ResultsoFocused on responsibility of the college
toward the studentoRedirected the purpose of the collegeoEmpowered the faculty
![Page 11: Iacbe 2013 meeting](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062821/58a5e0b71a28abd14d8b5f9d/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Step 2: Change the Calendar
Divided a traditional 15-week term into:12-weeks (students take 12-14 hours)3-weeks (students take 3-4 hours)
12-week courses are primarilytraditional core classesMost students only take 4 classes
3-week courses offer opportunities beyond the classroomMost students are only taking one course
Distinctive with only one other U.S. college utilizing the 12/3 approach.
![Page 12: Iacbe 2013 meeting](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062821/58a5e0b71a28abd14d8b5f9d/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
12-Week Term Courses tend to be more traditional
classes Faculty encouraged to seek breadth
versus depth Teaching methods re-examined:
More case studiesMore discussionsMore group workMore student presentationsLess lectureFlipping the classroom
