The day after he was officially installed as Catawba College's 21st President, Dr. Craig Turner shared with college trustees seven initiatives which would chart the course of the institution's future. The setting was the annual meeting of the Board of Trustees held Tuesday, February 16 in the Hurley Room on campus.
Turner called the initiatives "practical, doable and necessary," and said together they created not "a wish list, but a to do list," prioritizing the needs of the institution.
The initiatives include:
;-
;
- In the next five years, increase and stabilize enrollment to between 1150 and 1250; ;
