Highlands College does not exist so students will come. It exists so they will go. This plan is how the campus catches up to the calling — building for 1,100 students at a time, each one trained to be sent, multiplied across churches, cities, and nations the donor will never see.
The 2021–2025 Strategic Plan committed Highlands College to building "a world-class training ground for world-changing leaders." Five years later, the foundation is laid: ABHE accreditation earned, baccalaureate launched, master's program coming, the Village complete, Heights 2 finishing this December, the largest incoming class in school history walking through the door.
What follows is not a new vision. It is the operational answer to the one already published, signed, and underway. Eleven strategic capital projects. Six campus-shaping naming opportunities. One question for every conversation: what does it take to finish it sooner?
Click any project marker to open its details — budget, timeline, what it unlocks, and the naming opportunity it carries. Filter by tier to see how each layer assembles.
Some projects have to happen by a date. Some lift every day on campus. Some carry the name of the donor a hundred years from now. Each tier is a different conversation.
Every project here is sequenced against the others. Slip one and the dependencies cascade. Hover any bar for the project; scroll horizontally to see the full plan through 2029.
Naming opportunities are intentionally framed as ranges. The actual conversation happens in person — and the right gift is the one that fits both the project and the partner.
The Office of Advancement works alongside every Highlands College donor — from Community Partners and class gifts to anchor naming gifts that shape the next 50 years of the campus. Every conversation begins relationally.
