President Steve Perez has appointed a Strategic Planning Steering Committee to help guide the development of a new strategic plan. The committee will be gathering input from the campus community in 2024 as we begin to create Chico State’s “playbook," inspired by Patrick Lencioni's book, The Advantage: Why Organizational Health Trumps Everything Else in Business.

- Community Agreements
After receiving recommendations from Cozen O'Connor and the Chancellor's Office, Chico State formed an Implementation Team in late Spring 2023. The team was divided into five subcommittees. One of these subcommittees, the Other Conduct of Concern subcommittee, which consisted of four core members (two faculty and two staff), was responsible for developing a Statement of Conduct that covers unprofessional conduct, microagressions, acts of intolerance, distruptive behavior, free speech, academic freedom, and professionalism. At President Perez's recommendation, the subcommittee shifted from developing the Statement of Conduct to creating Community Agreements. The subcommittee expanded its circle by inviting other community members (students, faculty, staff) to participate in drafting the document. After drafting the Community Agreements in the fall of 2023, the Other Conduct of Concern Subcommittee conducted several meetings in the spring of 2024 with various campus stakeholders (students, faculty and staff) to seek their feedback on the document. More than 300 Chico State community members (students, faculty and staff) provided feedback on the Community Agreements. Here is the list of stakeholders consulted:
1. President's Cabinet
2. Chair Council
3. University Strategic Plan Committee
4. Provost Advisory Council
5. Associated Students (Government Affairs Committee)
6. Academic Senate
7. University Diversity Council
8. Staff Council
9. Labor Council
10. Affinity Groups
a. Black Faculty and Staff Association
11. Division Leadership
a. Business and Finance Leadership Team
b. Academic Technologies Staff
c. All MPP's & Department Chairs
Having updated the document based on the feedback received, the subcommittee is currently gathering endorsements from campus stakeholders and discussing the next steps of transforming the aspirational document into a tangible reality across our campus. The Other Conduct of Concern subcommittee welcomes any feedback or suggestions on the document. - Master Plan
The CSU, Chico 2030 Master Plan (2030 MP) describes the agreed upon plan and physical framework needed to accommodate growth and change on the CSU Chico Campus over the next ten to twenty years.
Closely tied to the University Strategic Plan, the Master Plan affirms a compelling set of goals, none of which are more important than building a community of learning and hope worthy of the trust that our students and the people of California have placed in us.
