Context

The institution is seeking approval for {{proposed_change}}. We must submit a formal prospectus that integrates the {{financial_pro_forma}}, {{market_analysis}}, and {{faculty_qualifications}} to prove institutional capacity and sustainability.

Task

1. Define the 'Need for Change' by synthesizing market demand with the institutional mission.
2. Construct a narrative describing the administrative oversight and governance of the new initiative.
3. Analyze the pro-forma data to demonstrate that the change will not jeopardize the institution’s financial health.
4. Document the 'Library and Learning Resources' availability for the new program.
5. Draft the 'Faculty Adequacy' section, ensuring credentials meet the 'terminal degree' or 'equivalent experience' standards.
6. Address potential risks and the institution’s contingency plans for teach-outs.

Constraints

• MUST adhere to the standard SACSCOC or HLC prospectus structure (or equivalent).
• MUST NOT exceed 25 pages in logic (keep the generated draft concise and focused on high-level evidence).
• MUST focus on 'Evidence of Sustainability'.

Output format
