In November 2012, Minnesota State Colleges and Universities (MnSCU) Chancellor Rosenstone asked MnSCU students, faculty, staff, presidents and trustees to participate on three workgroups to advise the long-term strategic directions needed to ensure access to an extraordinary education for all Minnesotans; to meet Minnesota’s workforce and community needs; and to deliver the most cost-effective, highest value education. For several months, each workgroup met regularly to assess the questions posed.
The resulting report, “Charting the Future” presented is preliminary and released with hope for broader consultation and dialogue among all constituencies before the final report is delivered to the chancellor Oct. 23.
