After careful deliberation, and in consultation with Faculty Senate and union leadership, the Executive Leadership Team of EWU has chosen individuals to serve on the two task forces for the strategic resource allocation process.

It is important to remember that task force members do not represent a particular department or service. They were selected for their ability to approach their work with an institutional perspective for their evaluation and assessment of programs and university services.

On Feb. 14-16, task force members will engage in two days of training with our consultant Larry Goldstein.

The primary responsibilities of each task force will include the review of template submissions for each academic program and university service and assigning them to the appropriate category based on an overall assessment. They will also participate in the development of a final report with recommended program and function classifications. Responsibility for decisions regarding implementation of the recommendations rests with the executive leadership team.
