ALL ACADEMICS, STAFF AND STUDENTS AT UC SAN DIEGO

SUBJECT:

Town Hall Meeting to Discuss Strategic Plan Results

I invite you to a Town Hall meeting on Thursday, April 24, from 3:00 to 4:30 p.m. at the Faculty Club Dining Room to hear and discuss the results of UC San Diego’s first-ever strategic planning process.

The comprehensive strategic planning process was initiated to develop a unifying vision and shared goals for the future of our campus. I’m pleased that more than 10,000 campus and community members participated in the process, sharing ideas and input that have been incorporated into our strategic plan. You have helped to focus our mission and sharpen our vision to be a student-centered, research-focused, service-oriented public university.

Together, we have defined five shared goals and 13 strategies for reaching those goals. The goals and strategies create a framework for sustainable excellence and set a grand course for the future of UC San Diego.

In order to allow employees the opportunity to attend the Town Hall, 1.5 hours of administrative leave with pay has been approved. Supervisors, upon request, may approve the use of administrative leave as long as the absence does not infringe upon the performance of required job duties or patient care.

If you have any questions about the Town Hall or need to request alternative accessibility accommodations, please contact Special Events and Protocol at (858) 534-6386 or sep@ucsd.edu.
