The meticulous collaboration between the Master Plan Team and the Strategic Communications team has culminated in a visionary master plan that will guide the campus’s growth and development for years to come.
The executive review phase is now commencing, where the master plan will be carefully examined and evaluated by university executives. This critical phase aims to ensure that the master plan aligns seamlessly with the university’s mission, values, and long-term objectives. The executive reviews are pivotal steps in the process of finalizing the master plan, guaranteeing its strategic relevance and effectiveness.
In the pursuit of excellence and informed decision-making, the Master Plan Team has made the deliberate decision to push back the submission of the document to the Board of Trustees from September to November. This extension allows ample time for thorough consideration and analysis of crucial aspects of the master plan. The team is committed to presenting a well-informed and comprehensive document that reflects the community’s voice while addressing key priorities and opportunities.
