UW Planning Retrospective: Myron Allen Academic Affairs

The Context: in 1998 UW’s budgets had been flat or slow-growing for a decade, with cuts in at least 2 years. Enrollments were declining. The statewide political discourse treated UW as an expense, not an investment. For nearly 2 decades, the closest thing to a planning document was a 1992 Academic Reallocation Committee report. There was little central guidance on the institution’s major scholarly directions and weak connections to key issues in the state and region. Research and graduate education had little visibility (in contrast to some earlier eras).

What planning has done for UW Identified areas of distinction: Critical areas of science & technology Cultural assets, arts, & humanities Environment & natural resources History & culture of the Rocky Mountain west Life sciences Professions critical to the state & region Provided a tool for strengthening these areas: Central Position Management

Highlights of specific advances Critical areas of science & technology: School of Energy Resources Partnership with NCAR Revitalized EORI Cultural assets, arts, humanities: MFA in Creative Writing Eminent writer-in-residence Art Museum outreach Planning for new Fine Arts facilities

ENR: new undergrad & grad degrees, joint JD-MS increased Haub School funding Cline & Spicer chairs History & culture of Rocky Mountain west: PhD in Anthropology Increase in AIST-related faculty Transfer agreements with NOLS, Teton Science School Life Sciences: Interdisciplinary PhD programs Revised undergraduate core Core facilities (WyGISC, Microscopy, NAEF, Stable Isotopes, …)

Professions critical to state & region: Education: STEM-related hiring Concurrent majors in secondary ed. Health care: Accelerated BSN (2 nd bachelors) Online RN-BSN completion Increased FMRC funding WIND degree program

Engineering: Reinstatement of BS in Petroleum Engineering New focus on energy & computation Stable funding for Engineering Summer Program Business: Executive MBA program Focus on natural resources, entrepreneurship, sustainability

Diversity-related initiatives Diversity funding pool in AA PACMWA Permanent visiting position in AAST Associate VP for Diversity Stable funding for Shepard Symposium MLK Days of Dialog Social Justice Center Rainbow Resource Center Routine salary equity checks & salary equity analysis

Internationalization Cheney center & scholarships Legal staff support for employees International partnerships (Russia, China, Guatemala, Australia, …) New attitudes! Academic Success LeaRN Stable funding for Writing Center, Oral Communications Lab, Math Lab Increased funding for Honors Program Synergy

Support for UW’s mission Increased Library funding Remarkable endowment growth Funding records in sponsored research Institutional practices Improved practices in faculty hiring T&P Use of course management software Systems for awarding financial aid Implementation of Banner software

Statewide outreach & service Increased discipline-level articulation Statewide agreements on general education Stronger administrative relationships Online UW (1999) P-16 Council EORI Wyoming Technology Business Center Economic development initiatives (RPC, SBDC, etc.)

Enrollment and workforce trends

Systematic enrollment management has led to a recovery in UW enrollment and increased access for site-bound students… …and increased pressure on support budgets

Legislative support, SER, and the Endowment for Excellence have restored UW’s faculty strength

UW’s faculty salaries have become more competitive, but the “finish line” is moving, too.

Major new facilities since 1999 Health Sciences complex Early Care Center Library expansion Anthropology building Indoor Practice Facility Hotel-Conference Center WTBC Classroom Building renovation IT building* Honors House* College of Business Expansion* College of Law Expansion* Cheney International Center* *construction under way

The big picture: Planning has given UW’s faculty and staff a greater sense of our distinctiveness, our deep connections to the state, our major directions, and the pathways to a better future. Planning and follow-through have helped strengthen UW’s credibility with state leaders. Planning has given UW’s leaders, from department heads to deans, a set of principles upon which to make difficult decisions about curriculum, people, and resources.
