The “Big Bets” work continues! If anything, it has accelerated in this national/global time of a shifting and changing higher ed landscape. In some ways, we just got a jump start on our COVID-19 planning?
Our latest meeting convened on Monday, April 20. We had 26 people in attendance and were able to cover the following topics:
- Welcome from Jen
- Update on non-retained student data from Amadou Ba & Coral Garey, Institutional Research
- Review of a model presented by a faculty subcommittee made up of Kevin Francis, Steven Hendricks, and Karen Gaul
- Small group discussion on model
- General discussion
Normally I would post pictures here, but I’m no longer in the habit of taking pictures in the virtual space! In lieu of pictures, I’ll give you more text to work with (sorry…).
The same crew (Kevin, Steven, Karen, with support from the rest of the Planning Team) will present at today’s Faculty Meeting (Wed, 4/22), and the Coordinating Group will convene again on Monday, April 27th.
Other behind-the-scenes happenings: model presentation to and feedback from senior leadership, the Student and Academic Life Leadership Team, the Campus Leadership Group (during week five). We are also brainstorming other ways of engaging our community in meaningful (remote) discussion.
Stay tuned!
