Senior Vice President for Academic Affairs & Provost
St. Paul Campus Planning
In 2007, Provost Tom Sullivan charged Kate VandenBosch, Head of Plant Biology; Robert Kvavik, Associate Vice President for Planning; and the seven deans of college on the St. Paul campus (Colleges of Biological Science (CBS), Continuing Education (CCE), Design (CDES), Education and Human Development (CEHD), Food, Agricultural and Natural Resource Sciences (CFANS), Veterinary Medicine (CVM) and Extension) to identify future themes, which will define the mission of the St. Paul campus. This group met with the deans, their associates, and selected faculty and others with insight into St. Paul Campus strengths and potential. The result of these meetings is captured in Defining the St. Paul Campus: A Working Document.
As part of this process, the group is convening public forums to discuss the draft recommendations for the St. Paul campus. Faculty, staff, students, external constituents, and residents of the local community are invited to take part in the public forums on Tuesday March 4, 3-4:30 pm; Wednesday March 5, 9:30-11 am; Wednesday, March 12, 4-5:30 pm; and Wednesday March 26, 5:30-7 pm. The final Strategic Report will incorporate these discussions.
