As highlighted in President Carolyn Ringer Lepre’s in February 2023, the Salisbury Seven is a bold new vision in alignment with ÐÇ¿Õ´«Ã½’s mission statement and core institutional values. These seven pledges will direct our strategic growth over the next five years, becoming the foundation for ÐÇ¿Õ´«Ã½’s 2025-2030 strategic plan.

1. We will invest in the people who deliver on our promises to students
2. We will provide a rigorous, student-centered academic program led by world-class educators on a world-class campus
3. We will maintain a continual commitment to access, opportunity, equity, and foster a strong sense of belonging
4. We will pursue strategic growth to meet the needs of the Eastern Shore, Maryland, and the nation, while staying true to our identity as a student-focused institution
5. We will be recognized for innovative, high-impact practices and for educating the whole student for a lifetime of leadership and service
6. We will secure resources to support ÐÇ¿Õ´«Ã½ programs, students, and culture
7. We will strengthen our institutional identity and reputation

These seven, key areas were created with the participation of our whole campus community and are the defining focus of ÐÇ¿Õ´«Ã½’s vision as we enter our next century.

The overall theme behind the Salisbury Seven is moving forward with excellence.

This is our core vision: We will move forward with the purpose of transforming lives through academic excellence, life-changing high-impact practices, inclusion and belonging.
