Distinctive Identity
We will celebrate the distinctive attributes of the Scripps experience—the College’s rigorous and collaborative educational program, its intimate, supportive, and close-knit community, and its beauty and serenity—by defining a shared narrative that elevates the Scripps story.
This shared narrative will inspire individuals in a growing and thriving Scripps community to take pride in their connection to the College. It will bring us all closer together, inspire dignity, broaden our community of support, and strengthen the Scripps promise of a transformative academic and personal experience.
Current Initiatives
Campus Master Plan
Develop an intentional, iterative framework for Scripps’ vision, planning, and benchmarking, in support of the mission of the College. Create a dynamic and renewable long-range guideline for physical development of the campus property that is respectful of our Claremont neighbors and community inclusive.
Strategic Identity
A market research initiative which will unlock a deeper understanding of our unique attributes, strengths, and opportunities. These insights enhance our ability to tell Scripps’ story, engage, and expand our community of support and help realize our institutional aspirations.
Environmental Stewardship and Resource Sustainability
To advance Scripps College’s distinctive identity as a leader in environmental action and address the urgent societal need, the College will advance its commitment to environmental responsibility through operations and community engagement. Building on the College’s commitment to sustainability, this initiative will establish concrete targets and timelines centering environmental justice principles throughout campus operations and decision making. This initiative focuses on adopting a comprehensive sustainability plan with measurable benchmarks and embedding an equitable, community-engaged approach to sustainability that honors our values and inspires the next 100 years of environmental leadership.
