<br />DRAFT <br /> <br />In addition to allowing the College to better serve its existing and expected <br />enrollment, the improvements will enable the College to better serve its larger <br />"community", including neighbors, host cities, organizations, and related higher <br />education institutions in the Twin Cities. <br /> <br />C. DEVELOPMENT CONCEPT <br /> <br />The Planned Unit Development (PUD) is the process the College must address in <br />order to implement its Facilities Plan. The Facilities Plan is the physical component of <br />Northwestern College's Institutional Plan. The Institutional Plan, in turn, represents <br />the framework into which all the separate college systems function together in an <br />integrated whole. <br /> <br />At Northwestern College, the direction of the College is set by its academic <br />endeavors. Other functions, including physical development, exist to support those <br />academic functions. The educational goals are supplemented by financial and <br />facilities goals, which work together to meet the overall mission of the College. The <br />purpose of the Facilities Plan (and the PUD) is to "correlate the human, educational, <br />financial, physical and intangible elements of the educational environment into an <br />optimal relationship within the institution." <br /> <br />As important as its academic mission, the College has many relationships with <br />organizations and institutions outside the College. As part of the Cities of Arden Hills <br />and Roseville as well as to other academic and non-academic organizations, the <br />College sees its role to maintain and improve those linkages through urban outreach, <br />community involvement and services and facilities. <br /> <br />Northwestern College Master Plan <br />PUD Application Report <br /> <br />3 <br /> <br />13529.000 <br />
