In 1989, Germanna Community College (GCC) developed this comprehensive master plan to strengthen its planning process. Part I provides an overview of the development of the master plan, the mission statement of the Virginia Community College System (VCCS), and the mission and purpose statements of GCC. Part II summarizes demographic trends based on historical and projected data. Information is provided on the size and population of the service region; the number of businesses within the region; curricula; enrollments; student characteristics; personnel; college facilities; library and learning resources; continuing education and community service; and financial resources. Part III lists issues and recommendations, providing parameters, goals, and direction for specific short- and long-range planning strategies. These strategies focus on the students, the curriculum, the community, partnerships, classroom and instruction, faculty and staff, marketing and recruitment programs, facilities, resources, assessment and accountability, and leadership toward the year 2000. Part IV describes the process of plan development, including adoption, prioritization, implementation, evaluation, and modification. Appendixes are provided for both sections III and IV, including a map, tables and graphs on demographics, finances, enrollments, degree programs, a summary of VCCS recommendations, a survey instrument used to gather information from local board and foundation members concerning GCC's master plan, and survey tabulations.
