Page 7 - MCC 2019-2021 Strategic Plan

MOTT STRONG.
It’s more than a slogan, and more than a marketing strategy. It reflects a sentiment which I encountered when I first arrived at Mott Community College, a feeling that has only been amplified and grown stronger the past several years we have worked together.
Mott Strong is a belief that our College is truly a family, and that we are united by a single common denominator: We exist to make our students successful, bettering their lives through education, and improving the economic and social fabric of the broader Flint, Genesee County, and mid-Michigan region.
Mott Strong is built upon the core beliefs – Commitment, Civility and Compliance – that undergird our daily work at MCC. It reflects our commitment to student and employee success and satisfaction; to
the creation and maintenance of a civil educational environment free of bullying, bias and prejudice; and to our belief in complying with the legal, safety, and fiscal obligations that ensure institutional health and excellence.
Mott Strong also reflects the synergies between MCC’s official Institutional Priorities and Strategic Plan for the period 2019-2021. Our priority work in
the areas of Diversity, Equity & Inclusion; A Committed Employee Culture; A Student-Centered Environment; Stewardship & Sustainability; Compliance; and Workforce Collaborations & Partnerships dovetails with the Twelve Major Goals (and more than 100 Tactical Plans) that make up the new Strategic Plan adopted by our Board of Trustees in December 2018.
Lastly, Mott Strong is all of us — every single individual who works at Mott Community College as well as all those who are not employed here, but still cheer us on every single day. Our lives are intertwined by the work we do and the love we have for our shared institution, work based on a collective mission, that of facilitating student success and community and economic prosperity for Flint, Genesee County, and beyond.
Mott has long served as a stable foundation, an anchor institution, and safe haven for our community and region. With Mott Strong, we will continue to be all of those things and more!
Looking forward!
Beverly Walker-Griffea, Ph.D.
President, Mott Community College
