The proposed Renewal program does not supplant or change current programs. Many current programs are part of employee contracts. This does not impact sabbaticals, leave, etc. Some non-contracted programs could be recast, but not necessarily. This will be done separately from renewal.
Renewal is aimed at everyone.
The major problem to be addressed - incredible demands are being made on people to change and grow. Reenergizing is part of this effort. This is good, but limited, probably to faculty. There are no preconceived notions about this program, but the Board is somewhat impatient so this committee should think about deliverables. Renewal could replace or expand some existing programs if committee desired.
