Committee on Enrollment Planning
A longstanding need widely identified at UH Mānoa has been the lack of strategic planning concerning enrollment. In response, the Vice Chancellor for Academic Affairs and the Vice Chancellor for Students have formed a Committee on Enrollment Planning. The purpose of the Committee is to complement the normal administrative structures, not override them; complement them at the goal and strategy level by providing a forum in which ideas can be advanced, developed, and tested and by providing a forum in which the cross-unit cooperation necessary to attain any enrollment goals can be modeled and forged. Enrollment goal setting and strategy development to attain those goals are at the core of this committee.
On August 5, 2009, the VCAA and VCS held a retreat with participation from the Senate Executive Committee, the newly formed Committee on Enrollment Planning, deans or associate deans from every school or college at UH Mānoa, and other interested parties. Two sets of data were examined at the retreat: "Key Enrollment Indicators Data" and Mānoa Undergraduate Tuition Projections. This data is provided below.
The purpose of the retreat was to develop a set of high-level enrollment goals for the campus. A copy of the draft "Enrollment Goals for UH Mānoa" is being disseminated for consultation and input; the draft document is also provided below. Comments are welcome and should be sent to academic@hawaii.edu.
