The University of Guelph’s strategic renewal project management team is seeking volunteers to participate in facilitated small-group conversations during the week of Nov. 23 to 27. The purpose is to gather perspectives on the University’s uniqueness and future direction.

The conversations will consist of up to 15 volunteers from the broader University community, including faculty, staff, students and alumni, and will last up to 90 minutes.

Interested people should register online.

The strategic renewal team is also holding a drop-in session Nov. 23 for those interested in sharing their thoughts on the University’s direction over the next five to 10 years.

The drop-in session will be held in the Academic Town Square, McLaughlin Library, from 4:30 to 6:30 p.m.

Information and ideas from this phase of the strategic renewal project (September to December 2015) will be organized under themes. In the second phase (January to March 2016), working groups will further examine the themes and consult with the University community.

A new University strategic plan will then be drafted and presented to the Senate and Board of Governors in June.
