meetings called Forums for the Future.

Kent State University President Beverly Warren is launching a new series of town hall meetings to update the university community on the Strategic Visioning Initiatives and the One University Commission.

Forums for the Future began Sept. 10 at Kent State University at Tuscarawas.

“We are at a defining moment in our history,” Warren says. “With such positive momentum generated in recent years, now is the time to build a bold vision for our best future. The forum series will provide an opportunity to share ideas and will help to create a strategic roadmap for our greatest success.”

Warren will begin each forum with a presentation that includes plans for creating a distinctive Kent State. Audience members will then have an opportunity to ask questions.

In March, Warren formed a Strategic Vision Advisory Committee to help guide the work to shape a vision, core values and university priorities.

Forums for the Future will continue Sept. 16 at Kent State University at Stark, followed by events Sept. 17 at Kent State University at Salem and Kent State University at East Liverpool. Additional Forum events will take place at all eight Kent State campuses, and include sessions aimed at faculty, staff and students.
