Provost Charles Zukoski will host open forums on Nov. 28 and Nov. 29 to gather input from the university community on the strategies UB needs to pursue to achieve the UB 2020 goal of becoming a premier public research university.

The sessions will be held from 3:30-5 p.m. Nov. 28 in 105 Harriman Hall, South Campus, and from 3:45-5 p.m. Nov. 29 in the Center for Tomorrow, North Campus.

Documents have been posted to the “Realizing UB 2020”   website describing UB’s current situation and the process of creating a “statement of institutional direction” outlining new goals and strategies to move the university to the next tier of public research universities.

For planning purposes, participants are asked to indicate which session they will attend by emailing prv-rsvp@buffalo.edu.
