Dear Colleagues:
As you know, NKU is about to embark on its journey to develop the strategic framework for our university’s future and we are reaching out for your help.
Beginning October 2, the Core Team will begin holding TalkShops to gather your input and ideas for the design and development of the university’s 3-year strategic framework (see attached for Core Team listing).

Within these sessions, you will talk with fellow faculty and staff members about ways to help ensure student success here at NKU, particularly as it relates to access, completion and career/community success.
