We have emphasized several institutional goals over the past five years. Though budgetary constraints have limited some activities, the University has made substantial progress in addressing academic quality issues, implementing a center for teaching and learning, marketing the University, improving levels of retention and diversity, making services and facilities more student-centered, and increasing university outreach and entrepreneurship. It is important that we continue to move forward in strengthening the University's identity as a student-centered campus that emphasizes creative and innovative approaches to teaching and learning while also building effective and meaningful relationships with external constituencies. Last fall, a group of WOU faculty, staff, and students met again to discuss ongoing strategic planning and to modify or recommend new goal statements. A list of current committee memberships follows.
Some committees already have chairs.
In other cases, the Deans will convene the groups, and chairs will then be named. If you have special interest in a particular initiative and wish to be added to a committee or subcommittee, please contact the Deans or committee chairs. In addition, committee chairs are asked to add student members and classified staff whenever possible. Dale Cannon Jai Lui Adele Schepige Carol Harding Cornelia Paraskevas 2.
