It describes the Indiana Commission for Higher Education’s statutory role—planning, reviewing budgets and programs, approving new campuses and degrees, administering major student financial aid, and coordinating with colleges and universities. It also details the Partnership Pentagon’s development process with 100+ sector partners, highlighting cross-sector ideas and the HOPE pillars: enrollment, completion, and graduate retention across multiple HOPE goals.","PARTNERSHIP PENTAGON:  \nSTRATEGIC RECOMMENDATIONS TO BOLSTER INDIANA’S HIGHER EDUCATION HOPE AGENDA  \n[che. IN.gov](che. IN.gov)  \nIntroduction  \nTHE PARTNERSHIP PENTAGON  \nAbout the Indiana Commission for Higher Education  \nCreated in 1971 by an act of the General Assembly and signed into law by then Governor Edgar Whitcomb, the Indiana Commission for Higher Education (Commission) is now in its fifth decade of service to the State of Indiana. The Commission is a fourteen-member public body created to:  \n• Define the educational missions of public colleges and universities;  \n• Plan and coordinate Indiana’s state-supported system of post-high school education, taking into account the plans and interests of independent colleges and universities;  \n• Review both operating budget and capital budget appropriation requests from public colleges and universities;  \n• Approve or disapprove for public colleges and universities the establishment of any new branches, campuses, extension centers, colleges, or schools;  \n• Approve or disapprove for public colleges and universities the offering of any additional associate, baccalaureate, or graduate degree or certificate program of two semesters or more in duration;  \n• Review all programs of study of public colleges and universities and make recommendations to the governing board of the institution, the Governor, and the General Assembly concerning the funding and the disposition of these programs;  \n• Administer more than $400 million annually in student financial aid programs; and,  \n• Designate and employ the Commissioner for Higher Education.  \nThe Commission is not a governing board, but a coordinating agency that works closely with Indiana’s public and independent colleges and universities, in partnership with the Independent Colleges of Indiana.  \nAcknowledgments  \nSince April 2023, more than 100 partners from business, education, government, non-profits (communityand faith-based organizations), and philanthropy have participated in the Partnership Pentagon. The Commission gratefully acknowledges their engagement, thought leadership, and feedback which informed the development of this final report. The Commission acknowledges that it cannot take on the challenges and opportunities facing higher education in Indiana alone. The unique ideas borne from the Partnership Pentagon signify the strength and possibilities of intentionally bringing together partners from the five key sectors. A full list of participants can be found in the Appendix. The Commission especially appreciates the leadership of the Partnership Pentagon sector committee chairs:  \n• Business: Dan Peterson, Vice President, Industry and Government Affairs, Cook Group  \n• Education: Dr. Ron Rochon, Former President, University of Southern Indiana  \n• Government: Chris Lowery, Commissioner, Indiana Commission for Higher Education  \n• Non-Profit: Marlene Dotson, President and CEO, Indiana Latino Institute  \n• Philanthropy: Claire Fiddian-Green, President and CEO, Richard M. Fairbanks Foundation  \nThere are many examples of successful policies, programs, and partnerships used throughout the report.  \nHowever, the Commission recognizes it by no means captured everything being implemented across the state. If you do have a best practice that is not included in this report, please share it with the Commission byemailing [info@che.in.gov](info@che.in.gov).  \nThe Commission also recognizes the contributions of the Hunt Institute. The Hunt Institute collaborated with the Commission to engage the Partnership Pentagon, supporting each meeting through agenda development, guest speaker and panelist coordination, meeting facilitation and notetaking, and development of issue briefsand key takeaways to inform the final report.  \n© Indiana Commission for Higher Education, 2024  \n“All Rights Reserved.”  \nTHE PARTNERSHIP PENTAGON: STRATEGIC RECOMMENDATIONS 21 May 2025, 11:24  \nTable of  \nCONTENTS  \nIntroduction    \nPartnership Pentagon Over","cbCailKfqmGBTCti","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCailKfqmGBTCti","pdf",3924252,32,"English","en",105,"# Introduction\n## THE PARTNERSHIP PENTAGON\n## About the Indiana Commission for Higher Education\n## Acknowledgments\n# Table of Contents\n## Partnership Pentagon Overview\n## HOPE Agenda Goal 1: College-Going Rate for Youth and Adults\n## HOPE Agenda Goal 2: Attainment for Veterans, Individuals with Disabilites, and the Justice-Involved\n## HOPE Agenda Goal 3: Credit for Prior Learning\n## HOPE Agenda Goal 4: Completion of Postsecondary Education and Training\n## HOPE Agenda Goal 5: Graduate Retention\n## Conclusion\n## Appendix: Partnership Pentagon Committees\n## Resources","[{\"question\":\"What is the HOPE Agenda referenced in the report?\",\"answer\":\"The HOPE (Hoosier Opportunities and Possibilities through Education) Agenda is the strategic plan for the Commission’s work through 2030, anchored in enrollment, completion, and graduate retention.\"},{\"question\":\"How does the Indiana Commission for Higher Education contribute to the HOPE Agenda?\",\"answer\":\"The Commission defines educational missions, coordinates the state-supported post-high school education system, reviews budget requests, approves new campuses and degree programs, recommends on program funding and disposition, and administers more than $400 million annually in student financial aid.\"},{\"question\":\"Who participated in the Partnership Pentagon process?\",\"answer\":\"More than 100 partners from business, education, government, non-profits, and philanthropy contributed since April 2023, providing engagement, feedback, and thought leadership that informed the final report.\"}]","PARTNERSHIP PENTAGON -
