University Strategic Plan (USP)
Annual Report Card FY 20121
The USP Annual Report Card highlights the University’s progress on the five Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) of the 2010-2015 Strategic Plan for FY 2012. It provides trend data that includes an overview of campus performance on key components of the University’s strategic planning documents such as: Complete College Tennessee Act, Tennessee Board of Regents Strategic Plan, and Tennessee Higher Education Performance Funding goals. The Report presents areas of strength and areas that need improvement. As the Report Card would show, there are areas worth celebrating based on the previous year’s progress: 2.63% growth in overall University enrollment; 2.07% increase in the number of students graduating from Tennessee State; 1.5% increase in Alumni Giving (representing over a quarter of a million dollars); and 6.86% jump in external grants and contracts (i.e. $3.1 million dollars more than the previous year). During the year, the University’s economic impact on the Nashville region and the State of Tennessee grew to more than a record six hundred million dollars. In addition, the University’s commitment to its public service mission expanded through the number of service learning courses offered at the institution, as well as the high number of community partnerships and students engaged in community service. I commend faculty, staff, students, alumni, and friends of the University for the accomplishments highlighted in this Strategic Plan Report Card. Central administration will continue to work with campus units and stakeholders to not only sustain our accomplishments, but also to continue to work on areas that need improvement. The administration will also continue to work with campus units to implement action plans towards meeting the shared goals and core expectations outlined in our Strategic Plan, and will provide, each year, a campus Report Card that highlights our progress. I thank the University Strategic Planning Council (USPC) for its work in coordinating the implementation of our Strategic Plan, and preparing this annual Report Card. Portia H. Shields, Ph.D. President
