Colleagues,

The consulting firm hired to assist with a strategic review of the overall operations of Pennsylvania's State System of Higher Education has launched a website through which the public can track the progress of the review and offer thoughts on the future of the State System.

As part of the review process, consultants will visit all 14 State System campuses and will come to IUP on April 28. As requested by the consultants, they will be meeting with the Council of Trustees, president's cabinet, University Senate leadership, union presidents, community members, and presidents of the Student Government Association and the Graduate Student Assembly. We have also been able to add meetings with the academic deans and the co-chairs of the Council of Chairs. Other key groups may be added if time and schedules allow.

I encourage you to be actively involved in this review process. Please feel free to offer your opinions through the Strategic System Review website or through those who will meet with the consultants.

Read more about the strategic review process in this news release from the State System.

President Michael Driscoll
