A series of town halls held this semester will facilitate discussion and feedback related to the University’s academic strategic plan, “Leading With Distinction.”

The entire campus community is invited to participate in these four virtual events, which focus on key areas of the plan:

  • Monday, Jan. 27, 3 to 4:15 p.m.: Global Diversity, facilitated by Elisa Dekaney, associate provost for strategic initiatives, and Chris Eiffe, associate vice president for academic operations
  • Monday, Feb. 17, 11 a.m. to 12:15 p.m.: Human Thriving, facilitated by Duncan Brown, vice president for research, Julie Hasenwinkel, associate provost for academic programs, and Dekaney
  • Friday, March 21, 11 a.m. to 12:15 p.m.: Emerging Technologies, facilitated by Brown, Eiffe and Hasenwinkel
  • Tuesday, April 29, 11 a.m. to 12:15 p.m.: Research, facilitated by Brown and Vivian May, professor of women’s and gender studies in the College of Arts and Sciences and director of the Syracuse University Humanities Center

The town halls are designed to create an inclusive environment that promotes the sharing of diverse viewpoints, opinions and ideas, reflecting the participatory nature of the plan’s development during the 2022-23 academic year. Following an introductory presentation about the town hall topic, moderators will facilitate conversation centered on five key questions.

“These events will allow our community to come together to discuss progress on the plan and what it means for the future of the University,” says Interim Vice Chancellor, Provost and Chief Academic Officer Lois Agnew in a message to the campus community. “We look forward to hearing from all of you.”

All events will be held on Zoom. To register, visit the Syracuse University calendar.
