Dear ɫӰ Community,

I am excited to invite all faculty and staff to participate in “Shaping Tomorrow: Detailing ɫӰ’s Future,” a university-wide event on Tuesday, January 28, 2025, from 8:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. at the Kovalchick Complex (KCAC).

Building on my recent presentations about ɫӰ’s future, this event is an opportunity for us to come together and collaborate in shaping the direction of our university. Through facilitated breakout sessions, speakers, and presentations, participants can brainstorm, offer suggestions, and discuss the key steps needed to solidify the direction ɫӰ will travel in the near future amid difficult times for higher education.

To help fit this into our schedules, daytime classes on January 28 will be canceled. Faculty and staff are encouraged to attend and contribute their input to these critical conversations.

To assist with planning, a separate registration email will be sent in the coming weeks to select the breakout sessions you would like to attend.

A continental breakfast and lunch will be provided to keep everyone energized throughout the day.

I look forward to seeing you there as we work together to shape a bright future for ɫӰ!

Michael A. Driscoll
President
