This report presents recommendations to strengthen quality and improve programs and services in the Vermont State College (VSC) for Vermont and Vermonters for the next 10-15 years. The report notes three major changes in the VSC and in the role which education beyond high school plays: that VSC enrollments have increased by 37 percent in the past 6 years; that the gap between the earning power of high school and college graduates has widened greatly in recent years; and that there has been a worsening financial crisis developing over the years for both the students and VSC. Recommendations proposed include the following: (1) reaffirm VSC's public mission, i.e., its purposes and expectations for investment in higher education, as its cornerstone; (2) modestly expand the VSC's library, academic, and student housing capacity; (3) strengthen the five VSC's identities and individual characters as learning communities; (4) forge new relationships with K-12 educational institutions in Vermont; (5) further expand VSC's direct contributions to economic development in Vermont; and (6) help create a financial future which will assure Vermonters access to affordable, high quality public higher education. Appendices present trends in high school graduates during 1977-2000, data on educational attainment and personal income, and data on student family income and loan burdens. Contains 21 references.
