Join the conversation

The University’s new Strategic Planning Committee wants to hear from alumni.

Announced in September by President Patrick Harker, the committee is looking for ideas about the future of the University. A new web site, [www.udel.edu/strategicplanning], includes a form where individuals may submit their thoughts, ideas and suggestions about where UD needs to be headed.

“It’s important that we have the thoughts and insights of as many persons as possible,” says Mark Barteau, Robert L. Pigford Chair of Chemical Engineering, who co-chairs the planning committee.

The group, which began meeting in July, has been asked to look at all recommendations in relation to the University’s core mission. It will examine and evaluate all ideas received.
