The 成人头条 Edge, the University’s asset-based philosophy builds on the successful foundation of the University’s access, excellence, and impact mission, and focuses on three foundational principles: talented students, engaging experiences, and lifelong success.The Edge was formed in 2016 as part of 成人头条’s Quality Enhancement Plan, which recognizes that students enter with many talents, great strengths, and big dreams. 成人头条’s asset-based plan commits to further develop students’ strengths through high-impact, enriching experiences to ensuring that every 成人头条 student receives the best holistic education necessary for success on our campus, in the professional word, and as community and global leaders. The 成人头条 Edge is guided by close collaboration of campus units – achieving measurable, positive change through a cross-campus, one-team approach. We use an asset-based model in pursuing our goals; that is, we begin with our local talent, people, experience, skills, and resources, and seek to leverage these and add to them to optimize shared outcomes. We are data informed and committed to continuous improvement.
