PREAMBLE
The goal of the State Board of Education is to provide an effective, integrated educational system which serves the needs of all Idahoans. The Idaho postsecondary educational system is comprised of Boise State University, the College of Southern Idaho, Eastern Idaho Technical College,Idaho State University, Lewis-Clark State College, North Idaho College, and the University of Idaho.
There are programs at each institution which have been developed as areas of emphases and which may become statewide. The colleges and universities have consciously displayed their emphases of these programs through the selective allocation of funds, the attraction of qualified faculty, the attainment of recognition such as specialized program accreditation, and the production of qualified graduates. These special academic and applied technology emphases shall be encouraged to flourish until there is conclusive evidence that any program should be altered.
As an integral part of its mission statement, each institution will designate areas of primary emphasis. These programs shall constitute the highest priorities for funding support and maintenance of instructional excellence.
VISION
Our vision is to improve the education system to a level of effectiveness that allows all learners to develop their full potential as individuals and contributors to society.
ROLE
The role of the institutions is to provide a wide variety of educational, training, research, continuing education and service programs to meet the personal and professional needs of Idaho citizens and Idaho employers.
STATEMENT OF COOPERATION
In order to increase student access and to provide efficient use of resources, the institutions shall collaborate in hosting programs and cooperate to meet the educational needs of all Idahoans, including those who are at a distance from campus.
