The work of the Phase II task force ensures that the goal of achieving HSI eligibility is embodied in the University Strategic Plan and is an institutional priority.  Achieving HSI eligibility will help meet the strategic priorities which include campus climate, community partnership, academic excellence, student life, and educational equity. 

The second phase begins conversations with North County Higher Education Alliance (NCHEA) and apply for monies through this organization to help fund some of the recruitment and retention strategies developed by the task force.  Grants through NCHEA could be used to help establish articulation agreements and solidify strategies to strengthen the educational pipeline for students from the community colleges to CSUSM.
