The Future of Luther - What Do We Want To Be?
|
Or maybe it's "Next Steps for Luther"-what do we need to do, to be who we want to be?
These are the questions driving all this "strategic planning" talk you've been hearing around campus. Who are we, as a college? What sets us apart from other schools? How do we tell our story-and what do we want that story to be in 5 years? What needs attention? What should never change?
YOUR IDEAS ARE IMPORTANT. And there are several ways for you to share your ideas, opinions, recommendations, hopes, and even dreams - all to contribute to our deciding as a community the goals and priorities for Luther College over the next 3-5 years.
We want to hear your voice at the activities planned for next week, listed below. We hope to see you there. Bring your friends. And if you have questions, please feel free to contact Strategic Planning Committee members, including student reps Jordan Boge, Nathan Campbell, Janet Irankunda; or co-chairs Brad Chamberlain or Terry Sparkes.
