Today at Ford Alumni Center, https://academicaffairs.uoregon.edu/content/fall-leadership-retreat. President Schill’s speech focuses on improving academic research and undergraduate retention and graduation. The New New Budget Model will not mindlessly allocate money on the basis of how many easy on-line gen-ed/MC credit-hours departments can churn out, but instead it will allocate at least some money on the basis of its potential for increases in academic quality. For undergrad graduation, talks about working with the faculty to reduce barriers to 4-year completion, better advising, etc. Lots of talk about diversity.
This is being recorded, but I’m not sure where the link is.
