Editor’s note: This update was shared with faculty and staff on behalf of Heather Shipley, Interim Provost and Senior Vice President for Academic Affairs.

Colleagues,

I am writing on behalf of the members of the Strategic Planning Refresh Subcommittee to share our final findings and recommendations regarding UTSA’s strategic plan. This report is also being shared with President Taylor Eighmy.

About the Strategic Plan Refresh Process

During the past year, it has been my honor to join you in celebrating our shared accomplishments and imagining together how UTSA will continue to build on our strengths to fulfill our potential. This year allowed us to reflect on the considerable work we have accomplished over the first five years of our strategic plan. Together we have completed or operationalized dozens of strategic initiatives and moved the needle on our most important key performance indicators.

The refresh effort was successful because the UTSA community collaborated actively at each stage. Thousands of faculty members, staff and students shared their voices and proposed ways to make UTSA an even better place to study, learn, discover and work. The Steering Committee incorporated this feedback by affirming the aspects of the plan that continue to serve us well and adding focus where needed. I am confident that, moving forward, the Roadrunner community will continue to demonstrate this high level of engagement and commitment as we implement new initiatives to reach our strategic destinations.
