Dear Students, Staff, and Faculty,
I am writing this afternoon in my new role as Vice President for Strategic Initiatives. As you know, we have started work on some of the initiatives. Provost Mermann-Jozwiak and I will be sharing periodic updates about this work.
As we move forward, community input will be essential to enacting the bold goals we have established. To gather the ideas of as many Bucknellians as possible, I will be holding open hours at various times and locations around campus. I invite you to stop by to ask questions or share your thoughts about the strategic plan — no appointment is necessary, and all are welcome. You may also call or email me directly with ideas, comments or concerns. In addition, you may email your input to strategicplanning@bucknell.edu. The current schedule is as follows:
Tuesday, Nov. 5, 2-3:30 p.m., MacDonald Commons Conference Room 102
Friday, Nov. 8, 9:15-10:45 a.m., Olin 266
Monday, Nov. 11, 11 a.m.-12:30 p.m., Geiger Physical Plant Conference Room
Wednesday, Nov. 13, 10-11:30 a.m., Dana Engineering 130
Tuesday, Nov. 19, 2:30-4 p.m., Cooley Conference Room 19A
Wednesday, Nov. 20, 8:30-10 a.m., Graham Learning Lab
Thursday, Dec. 5, 8-8:55 a.m. and 10:15-11 a.m., ELC 241B
I look forward to hearing from you!
Sincerely,
Robert Midkiff
VP for Strategic Initiatives
