Harper College will be closed Wednesday, November 27 through Sunday, December 1 for Thanksgiving Break.
As an important step in the process of developing Harper's next strategic plan, the
College held three Data Summits in fall 2024. The summits provided participants with
the opportunity to review and provide insights on current data about Harper students
and employees as well as the broader community we serve.
Each summit was identical. Data reviewed focused on students, employees, the community, and the workforce and was organized
under our SOAR/You Matter; We Care success framework. The Data Summits were held in a World Café format. This means
there was a variety of tables (14), each set up with a different topic/data point
and discussion questions. Participants spent time at up to four tables of their choosing
reviewing the data and engaging in discussion. Additionally, participants recorded
thoughts, feelings and reactions on the paper tablecloths.
