More than 100 members of the University of Wyoming community have agreed to serve on groups charged with developing a university strategic plan to recommend to President Ed Seidel and the UW Board of Trustees later this spring.
In addition to a 13-member Strategic Scenario Planning Team, five groups have been assembled to address specific pieces in the planning process. Their work, including solicitation of input from across the university and around the state, will help the administration chart the university’s course for the future.
Strategic scenario planning is taking place concurrently with reviews of academic and other programs of the university in response to significant budget reductions driven by losses of state funding.
