UAA launches open forums for UAA 2025 Strategic Plan

UAA will hold open forums this fall for stakeholders — faculty, staff, students, alumni, donors, industry partners and university friends and supporters — to participate in the institution's strategic planning process.

UAA 2025, the university's next strategic plan, will replace UAA 2020, which expires at the end of the year. Tri-chairs Christi Bell, LuAnn Piccard and Joel Potter, appointed by Chancellor Cathy Sandeen, are leading the strategic planning process. Initial work on the plan began last spring and continued through the summer in anticipation of enaging UAA stakeholders this fall.

"Broad participation in this process will allow us to create a vibrant and dynamic plan driven by collective goals and values," Sandeen said.
