Where Do We Go From Here?
Dane Ward
How Do We Get There?
Our Task Today: To create priorities for the coming year that are
– clearly defined– concrete– achievable – and respond to emerging needs
Discussion/Activity
Each table talks for 10 minutes and identifies 3-4 priority projects. The projects can be in any of the 14 categories. In the end, each table will have a list of priority projects which can be placed in one of those categories. We will then collect the results and identify priorities based on the previous categories.
To be the preeminent center of learning, information, culture, and technology in higher education.
