Help Us Shape UB’s Campus Plan

On April 22, join us for our second forum on UB’s emerging Comprehensive Physical Plan. Tell us how you think it can improve our North, South, and Downtown campuses and surrounding communities. In a series of constituency group workshops, we will present these campus concepts for discussion and your critique. An evening capstone session will include the presentation and the results of the five workshops, followed by a celebration of our progress. Please come. Your input is vital.

For Peer Groups
Workshops

Please choose the workshop that best fits your community or campus role. You will hear an overview of the plan and be invited to participate in an intensive session to view and critique key concepts in the emerging plan for one of UB's three campuses, or to reflect on the overarching issues of transportation and the creation of a 21st-century "learning landscape." If you would like to discuss more than one campus or issue you may register for additional sessions. If you are unable to attend the session for your peer group, feel free to register for another one.
