Part 2- Program Mission, Vision, and Goals:  

Your mission and vision statements are a work in progress.  You will use this discussion throughout the term in order to perfect your mission and vision.  If you get stuck when trying to create your mission statement and/or your vision statement, you should post the information you have and allow your peers to help you.  Everyone in the discussion should be providing constructive feedback that helps your peers grow in this area. This is a new process for many of us and it is best to collaborate with one another to gain the most out of the experience.
