 UVI alumni and special alumni joined the effort to develop the University's next strategic plan in sessions held Dec. 7 and 8, on St Croix and St. Thomas, respectively. Sixteen alumni on St. Croix and another 15 on St. Thomas gathered to provide input into the process. Their suggestions will be added to those offered by students, faculty, and staff who have already attended similar, wide-ranging sessions designed to develop a series of common themes on which the next strategic plan will be based.

 Input has also been received from the Board of Trustees. The effort is organized by the University’s Planning Task Force (PTF). The PTF will develop a draft strategic plan which will be presented to the University's formal shared governance process prior to being submitted to Planning Committee of the Board and the full Board of Trustees for approval in June 2011. The new strategic plan will be launched in the fall of 2012.
