Advisory Committee named

Posted on March 27, 2024

Following a previous update on the Strategic Plan Refresh, I’m pleased to announce the formation of the Strategic Plan Advisory Committee that will guide the update of Giant Steps 2.0. This university committee will be seeking your input as the process unfolds, making recommendations, and drafting a refreshed plan to present to campus Fall 2024. Campus feedback on the draft will inform a final plan submitted to me in December. Members were selected from a large pool of excellent nominees submitted by Deans and Chancellor’s Council. They represent a wide range of skills, experiences, and constituencies. Join me in thanking them for taking on this important role and I look forward to the results of their effort.
