We will continue to refresh these twice per year. Some plans cover one year, others look across two or more, reflecting distinct needs and opportunities in each area. Together, they form a framework that keeps us aligned and ensures that as we claim CC\u2019s space in higher education, we do so purposefully and with focus.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0;\">Please review the <a style=\"text-decoration: underline; color: #4764af;\" href=\"https:\/\/t.e2ma.net\/click\/j8z6lj\/nr5ib5j\/727nwu\"> updated divisional plans, along with my presidential priorities<\/a> (CC login required).
