This year’s development of the University strategic plan has arrived at an important milestone, with an invitation for the campus community to engage again in the process.

Excerpt from email sent to campus:

[The strategic plan’s draft] goals and objectives can be found here.  We are looking forward to receiving your feedback at WWUStrategicPlanning@wwu.edu; the web site has a link to this e-mail address as well.  If you prefer to give your feedback anonymously, please click the link on the website here. Please provide your feedback by the end of the day, Wednesday, May 31.

After we receive your feedback we will revise our goals and objectives as necessary, add a framing narrative for the entire document and for each goal, and identify metrics by which to judge the University’s progress in accomplishing them. We will submit our final draft to President Randhawa by June 16, as he asked in his charge. That draft will be circulated in the summer and fall before final revision and presentation to the Board of Trustees for adoption.

As Senate President, I would like to add my personal thanks to the faculty who served on the strategic planning committee:  Vicki Hsueh, Nabil Kamel, David Leaf, Kristin Mahoney, and co-chair Paqui Paredes Méndez.

Just a reminder that the new Taskforce on Preventing and Responding to Antisemitism is asking for the faculty’s support in identifying specific things that Western needs to do to reduce antisemitism on campus.  Many thanks for your input and ideas.
