Together, A New Strategic Plan

“It is a remarkable time to be a Horned Frog. For 150 years, we have developed ethical leaders who shape and improve the world - and we're just getting started. Now, we write the next chapter of our story together.”

- Chancellor Victor J. Boschini, Jr. and President Daniel W. Pullin

Core Strategy Team

To help steer the strategic planning process and ensure that we incorporate perspectives from all campus stakeholders, a Core Strategy Team has been assembled to convene on a regular basis. Dr. Emily Lund, Dr. Kevin Knight, Dr. John T. Harvey, Dean Amy Hardison Tully and Deputy Athletic Director Ryan Peck have been appointed as Co-Chairs, and Dr. Susan Weeks is our Core Strategy Team Project Manager.
 
The team will work closely with members of the President's Cabinet and an advisory council of student, faculty, staff and alumni governance leaders, and has already begun to reach out to faculty, students, staff, alumni, employers, Trustees and the broader Fort Worth community to engage in workshops and listening sessions around four strategic pillars:

1. Growth and Student Experience
2. Research, Scholarship and Creative Activities
3. Athletics
4. Community Engagement
