Office of the Provost

Dear Colleagues,

I am writing with a reminder of our upcoming Visioning Day events that are the first step in our strategic planning process. We hosted our first of these events last Friday with faculty, staff, and students from across our university. Participants generated a wide range of thoughtful ideas and observations about ways for UConn to accelerate its ascent across President Katsouleas’ priorities and our guiding values that we will develop as part of the planning process.

I invite you to sign up for one of our upcoming events, this Thursday, Nov. 19 from 2:30 to 4:30 p.m., or Friday, Dec. 4 from 10 a.m. to 12 p.m. The deadline for the Nov. 19 event is today, so please be sure to sign up soon if you plan to attend that day.

More information about Visioning Day events can be found by clicking here.

Also, be sure not to miss the launch of our Provost’s Distinguished Speaker Series this year, with the first talk of the year given by Board of Trustees Distinguished Professor C. Michael White. His talk, “Shining Light in the Shadows: My Work in Dietary Supplements,” is today at 4 p.m. More details are available at this link.

I look forward to seeing you at these upcoming events.

Sincerely,
Carl

Carl Lejuez
Provost and Executive Vice President for Academic Affairs
