Guiding Principles
The Resource Allocation Council is committed to clearly communicating our processes and recommendations. In the resource allocation process, we will ask the questions:
- Does it help students reach their educational goals?
- Is it reasonable?
- Is it allowable?
- Is it essential?
- Is it sustainable?
The direction of the Resource Allocation Council is based on the following established Guiding Principles:
- We value stewardship and integrity in recognizing our fiduciary responsibilities to ensure financial stability.
- We take an institutional approach to decision-making. Resource allocation recommendations are based on the following:
-
- Alignment to the college mission and goals
- Scholarship of teaching and learning
- Value to the community
- Budget assumptions, projections, and scenarios
- We strategically allocate resources to strengthen learning and support services that improve student success.
- We are responsive to articulated college needs through a defined and documented process.
- We use relevant, well-defined, agreed-upon data in a consistent manner for decision-making.
- We are proactive in leveraging current resources, regardless of the fiscal climate.
- We operate under the established timelines.
- We regularly assess, refine, and communicate resource allocation processes.
