As colleges and universities welcome students back for the 2021/2022 academic year, they must stay nimble and responsive to the changing conditions of the pandemic. At the same time, this era of disruption presents great opportunities to effect change via thoughtful, integrated planning that delivers on higher education’s unique ability to spur innovation, cultivate engaged communities, address the devastation of climate change, and promote a just and equitable society. How can we learn from our recent experiences to plan for and accelerate resiliency? Which bold commitments can we make as we intentionally move forward with an emphasis on responsible and entrepreneurial connections?
Resetting higher education.
This year’s theme, “Threshold,” explores opportunities for resetting higher education, offering fresh takes on integrated and agile planning. Higher education planners have spent many years examining physical “in-between” spaces that support campus life, inclusivity, personalized learning, and student wellness. These campus-defining spaces that foster socially formative experiences—outdoor learning and working environments as well as informal gathering spots—will become increasingly important as students, faculty, and staff prioritize health, equity, and safety in their return to school. Likewise, as we navigate this new hybrid approach to learning and working that encompasses both virtual and in-person experiences, we must find opportunities for reassessing campus environments and learning pathways.
Novel and multivalent integrated planning.
The character of Oregon’s higher education network—in particular, the state’s wide scale of academic institutions across a range of natural settings—sets the stage for finding creative approaches to campus life. At the University of Oregon, the confluence of an engaged and responsive planning process with philanthropic support enabled the emergence of the Phil and Penny Knight Campus for Accelerating Scientific Impact. We’ll explore how the Knight Campus and other examples of novel and multivalent integrated planning place the Pacific Region at the “threshold” of a more resilient future.
Leading the way.
This on-campus conference will offer a range of opportunities for learning and engaging with your peers. Regional thought leaders will focus on the future of higher education through provocative discussions, concurrent sessions, tours, deep-dive workshops, and master classes.
Keeping you safe.
We are planning for, and excited to welcome attendees to our in-person annual conference, while acknowledging the complexities of planning a safe and effective in-person, indoor conference that meets new and emerging university, local, state, and federal regulations. We are monitoring local and state regulations as well as guidelines from the CDC and WHO. As these regulations and guidelines change frequently we will provide more information to registrants as we approach the conference.
Effective March 19, the state of Oregon has lifted the mask mandate, however, masks are still required on the University of Oregon’s campus.
We and the University of Oregon expect that all conference attendees will be fully vaccinated according to CDC guidelines for full vaccination or arrive with a negative covid test taken less than 72 hours prior to arrival. Attendees will be required to demonstrate their status by showing their vaccination cards or negative covid test results to pick up their badge. Masks are required for all indoor activities.
Currently, there is no proof of vaccination or negative Covid test to enter a restaurant in Eugene.
Not able to attend in person? Powerpoints of sessions will be available to you approximately one week after the conference (for registered attendees only).

Presented by: Brent Elliott, Director, Planning, Development, and Sustainability, Kwantlen Polytechnic University | Jaret Lang, Associate Vice President, Campus & Community Planning, Kwantlen Polytechnic University | Emily Rennalls, DIALOG
Many higher education campuses are located on ancestral territories that have longer histories than the institution. Campuses have the opportunity to become more just, inclusive, imaginative, and authentic places when they take action towards reconciliation with indigenous peoples. Kwantlen Polytechnic University (KPU) is using its 2050 campus plan to reset and root the campus in the living histories of its indigenous ancestral territory. We’ll share our experience developing KPU’s campus plan, discuss the merits of connecting your campus to its indigenous history, and help you to outline a path toward addressing reconciliation and decolonization.
Learning Outcomes:
- Develop a baseline understanding of your institution’s relationship with colonial practices, your personal relationship with colonization, and local indigenous history.
- Create a process that allows flexibility in approach, timelines, and budgeting in order to allow room for trust and relationship-building.
- Identify institutional champions of the reconciliation process and build relationships with indigenous partners and knowledge-keepers.

Slides are available to registrants only.
Presented by: Walter Fleming, Department Chair, Native American Studies, Montana State University | Bill Hanson, President and CEO, ThinkOne Architecture | John How, Associate Vice President, Montana State University – Bozeman
American Indian students face multiple obstacles in pursuing higher education, including facilities that don’t represent their cultural heritage. Montana State University (MSU) changed this with the commissioning of the American Indian Hall. In order to provide a welcoming, inclusive space for indigenous students, MSU incorporated aspects of indigenous culture and heritage within the design of a new LEED Platinum facility. We will share our design approach that centered an indigenous point of view with input from tribal partners across the state, resulting in an environmentally-safe and healthy campus building that fosters wellbeing for American Indian students.
Learning Outcomes:
- Assess your current facilities and determine which, if any, spaces reflect not only indigenous cultures but local, state, or regional customs and heritage.
- Discuss a multifaceted communication plan to solicit input and feedback from rural tribal reservations and indigenous students to design inclusive spaces that prioritize wellbeing and truly reflect their tribal cultures.
- Prioritize LEED principles of environmental health and safety as well as cultural significance and relevance to indigenous students, staff and faculty in your design and construction work plan.
- Identify key design elements of learning spaces that foster wellbeing for indigenous students and promote knowledge of indigenous heritage on your campus.

Willie and Donald Tykeson Hall: A New Model for Student Success
3:05 PM – 4:05 PM | Meet at the Registration Desk
The University of Oregon’s new Willie and Donald Tykeson Hall gives physical form to a new model for student success that integrates critical academic, career, and support services within the framework of essential liberal arts curriculum. The building’s realization required a transformational vision for these services and the spaces that would support a new organizational structure. However, just as Tykeson was coming on line, the university was forced to move to remote learning due to the pandemic. On the surface, this seemed like a tremendous setback for testing the building’s innovative model. But, as we return to in-person learning, we find ourselves on the ‘threshold of a new normal’ and the realization that pandemic challenges have actually made this model both stronger and more resilient.
Learning Outcomes:
- Effectively integrate academic programs with support services to improve engagement and better equip students with foundational knowledge and transferable skills for lifelong learning.
- Break down institutional silos and more flexibly manage integrative change in student support services and academic programs.
- Manage critical change during a large disruptive event through improved technology, greater mobility, and increased virtual capability, providing significant long-term benefit for student engagement, program efficacy, community, and overall equity.
- Respond to future disruptions through flexible design and smart infrastructure – including outdoor campus spaces.
