![On Monday, Feb. 12, the university hosted an open forum on strategic planning. A campus-wide email from the Communications department was sent out in anticipation of the event.
The event is part of a series of forums related to the strategic planning process, dubbed “The Wright Path to 2025: Pride, Transformation, Potential.”
Through this series, the university intends to collect thoughts and facilitate discussion from any members of the Wright State community with input to share.
“This first set of open forums is designed to engage anyone interested in helping to define Wright State’s future […] While celebrating our past and current successes, the forums will focus on our university’s mission and purpose as we look to the future,” said President Cheryl Schrader in the email.
Individuals of varying backgrounds were involved in the dialogue, including students, faculty, staff, and community stakeholders. Participants were split off into separate tables, where they introduced themselves to one another and responded individually to four prompts:
Reflect on experiences with pride, transformation, and potential.
Explain how Wright State allowed those experiences to occur.
Provide recommendations for the university as it moves forward.
State points of interest to bring to President Schrader’s attention.
After reflecting on the prompts, attendees participated in group discussions to identify common values shared amongst the people at their table.
“The planning process will put our institution in a position to thrive in higher education's changing environment, help the university achieve financial sustainability, and foster a campus atmosphere that provides graduates with opportunities to excel in fields that define the future,” said Schrader in the email.
Open forums such as this event will lead up to a culminating event scheduled for April, in which the committee will reveal its updated mission statement.](https://snworksceo.imgix.net/wsg/4dcfc937-f6d3-4f3b-8a2c-051541b29336.sized-1000x1000.?w=1500&ar=16%3A9&fit=crop&crop=faces&facepad=3&auto=format)
