Preamble: In the spirit of shared governance, the Provost, together with the members of the Atlantic City Task Force, asks for your input on Stockton University’s expansion in Atlantic City. Note that Stockton University has been designated by the Secretary of Higher Education as an “Anchor Institution.” With this designation, Stockton University is charged with “place-based engagement.” The “anchoring role” of such an institution emerges in reciprocal collaborations with other place-based entities and thus is expected to have an integral impact on the community. It’s this designation, together with Stockton’s tradition and history of engagement that has informed our Vision and Mission statements for our expansion in Atlantic City. Draft Vision Statement: Stockton’s Atlantic City campus will serve as a vibrant and community-engaged anchor institution – contributing to the intellectual, social, and cultural aspirations of a diverse population and serving as a catalyst for economic development in Atlantic City and the South Jersey region Draft Mission Statement: Stockton University embraces its call to serve as an anchor institution, extending its impact in Atlantic City, southern New Jersey and beyond. We will connect opportunities in Atlantic City to our mission by reaffirming our core values of: Excellence in teaching and dedication to learning. Commitment to interdisciplinary and innovative approaches to community-engagement that respect and appreciate the full spectrum of human diversity. Support of co-curricular activities and research experiences as central to our pedagogical mission. Stockton already utilizes several spaces in Atlantic City including the Carnegie Library, Dante Hall, and the Arts Garage. The current plans for the expansion in Atlantic City include a 56,000 square foot academic building and a residence hall with over 500 beds. The new space includes office, classroom, retail, and event space. (See http://intraweb.stockton.edu/eyos/page.cfm?siteID=254&pageID=55). Instructions: Work with the other members of your unit to tell us your accomplishments, aspirations, and dreams for realizing Stockton’s mission in Atlantic City. Note that for the purposes of this exercise, the term “unit” is broadly defined and encompasses Stockton’s academic programs, co-curricular programs, centers and institutes, as well as new entities that aspire to contribute to this vision and mission. Please limit your comments to 3 – 5 pages and submit your proposal electronically (MS Word format preferred) to John.Smith@stockton.edu by November 4. Please tell us: How does your unit already contribute to realizing the articulated vision for Atlantic City and fulfilling the stated mission (if applicable)? Given the new opportunities presented by our expansion in Atlantic City, how do you envision your unit contributing differently to the articulated vision for Atlantic City and fulfilling the stated mission? First, describe your idea. Then, please address specifically how the following elements apply to your idea: How will your idea allow Stockton to extend its reach in excellence in teaching and dedication to learning? Does your idea align with Stockton’s tradition and history in providing interdisciplinary and innovative approaches to learning? If so, how? Will your idea provide new opportunities for research? Will your idea assist Stockton in better realizing its commitment to diversity and to the intellectual, social, and cultural aspirations of a diverse population? If so, how? How would your idea provide “place-based” engagement significant to the Atlantic City community? Will your idea allow for reciprocal collaborations with other place-based entities in Atlantic City? If so, which ones? How do you envision these collaborations working? How could you engage with community leaders/members to determine their perspectives on your collaboration and its impact? How do you think your idea will impact the community in Atlantic City? Do you think your idea will serve as a catalyst for economic development in Atlantic City and the South Jersey region? If so, how? What are the resources needed to bring your idea to fruition? Please describe needed space, faculty/staff positions, logistical support, and other resource needs.
