“Questions To Ask About Your Institution……..

• What changes are needed in antiquated or inefficient systems and practices when it comes to responding to a rapidly changing marketplace?

• Should we be seeking alternative revenue streams to take the burden off tuition dependency?

• Have we exhausted our search for cost-saving measures to reduce and rein in expenses?

• Should we focus on more internal shared responsibilities or collaborate with other schools to eliminate redundancies?

• Is our fiscal model sustainable? For how long? What is Plan B? “
