| March 25, 2005 E. Thomas Sullivan Senior Vice President for Academic Affairs and Provost Dear Faculty, Staff and Students: The Strategic Positioning Report was endorsed unanimously by the Board of Regents on March 11, 2005. The next step will be the creation of recommendations for consideration to President Bruininks. We expect these recommendations from the Academic Task Force and the Administrative Task Force to be available on March 30th. One of the central themes of our strategic positioning process is the relationship between access and excellence. I've added a second essay (the first was "Leading Change") to the Strategic Positioning Web site. The essay can be found here. We continue to seek your comments and advice as this process moves forward. Sincerely, |
