Forward Together Task Force
The Forward Together Task Force has a focused charge to prepare, scope, and lay out the steps to engage in a university-wide process of listening and discussion.
The Task Force lays the groundwork for the university-wide process of listening and discussion by:
- Identifying scope and goals;
- Identifying broad topic areas;
- Identifying strategy and steps to select an external facilitator(s) to engage the institutional wide process for all faculty, staff, and students;
- Identifying ways that the process interacts with, supports, and furthers, strategic planning; and
- Complete the work no later than June 30, 2021 so the discussion can move forward.
