Abstract	This report presents a vision statement and educational goals for Northeast Missouri State University that were developed by the university's student senate, as well as specific recommendations to implement and achieve the vision and goals. The report focuses on: (1) the restructuring of the liberal arts and sciences core curriculum and the possible move to four credit hour classes; (2) the strengthening of undergraduate and graduate programs through improved academic advising, published course evaluations, and increased efforts to combat grade inflation; (3) the publication and dissemination of student, faculty, and institutional evaluations, as well as the tracking of the university's graduates; (4) the improvement and renovation of university facilities, such as the library, various academic buildings, the student recreation center, and residence halls; (5) increased access to advanced technology, such as computers; (6) the improvement of student services, including health, career counseling, personal counseling, student government, and food services; (7) the expansion of the "residence colleges" dormitory program and the need for increased on-campus housing; and (8) the need to maintain current levels of enrollment, address student alienation, and encourage the input of students, faculty, alumni, and administrators.
