INTRODUCTION
This report combines the previous Annual Accountability Report and University Work Plans
into a single document more closely aligned with the Board of Governors’ 2025 System
Strategic Plan.
This document enhances the System’s commitment to accountability and strategic planning
by enabling comparisons between past goals and actual data to better assess performance,
helping to foster greater coordination between institutional administrators, University
Boards of Trustees, and the Board of Governors.
Once this Accountability Plan is approved by each institution’s respective Boards of Trustees,
the Board of Governors will review and consider the plan for approval, excluding those
sections of the Plan that require additional regulatory or procedural approval pursuant to
law or Board regulations.
