A Survival Guide to Planning and Executing Phased Renovations

By: Laura A. Cruickshank, Roger N. Goldstein, Sarah Stanton

Abstract: Renovating campus buildings that are partially occupied is a frequent challenge. Planning and executing an efficient phased renovation optimizes resource use and minimizes disruption. This presentation will focus on lessons learned in three case studies of phased renovations, comprising mid-20th century science and humanities buildings as well as student housing. You will learn about best practices from projects across multiple building types as well as examine planning methodologies, design processes, and technical challenges for broader applicability.

Strategic Planning at the Division Level

By: Erica Eckert

Abstract: Planning for a division within a university can be difficult; you must align to the larger institutional plan while also considering your division's unique mission and challenges. This session will describe the strategic planning process for a college within a university. We'll describe how we included more than 500 stakeholders, discussed enrollment declines and the upcoming demographic changes that will impact most colleges, and how we focused the plan on mission and innovation. You will leave with a blueprint for the planning process we used, from self study to training facilitators to final plan release.

Too Much and Not Enough

This state university, through transparency and inclusive, two-way communication, kept student needs at the forefront when planning for right-sized spaces.

By: Jonathan A. Martin

When resources are constrained and enrollment is tightening, it takes thoughtful and strategic involvement of all stakeholders to develop and execute a comprehensive facilities plan.

From Volume 47 Number 3 | April–June 2019

Abstract: When St. Cloud State University found itself with too much aging infrastructure but not enough right-sized spaces or enough funding or rationale for new facilities, their comprehensive facilities planners took a deep dive into data. They used a highly inclusive process to create a CFP that guided strategic decisions and shifted institutional culture.

Incorporating Critical Race Theory in Physical Planning

By: Nick Hodges, Rebecca Ocken, Amara Perez

Learn from Portland Community College's ongoing exploration of what it means to apply Critical Race Theory to the built environment.

Including CRT in the use and design of physical space is new and, in some ways, unknown. Learn from PCC's ongoing exploration of what it means to apply CRT to the built environment. We'll discuss how we're rethinking planning and programming activities to encourage more diverse contributions that result in spaces that support all students.

Align Processes and Foster Collaboration to Streamline Planning Engagement

By: Wade Caldwell, Brittany Cipollone, Mickey Williford

The newly consolidated Augusta University implemented an annual planning and resource alignment process to streamline procedures and integrate strategic efforts across the institution.
Abstract: The newly consolidated Augusta University implemented an annual planning and resource alignment process to streamline procedures and integrate strategic efforts across the institution. This process fosters transparency in each unit's accomplishments, challenges, and priorities by holding annual open hearings that culminate with executive-level feedback on units’ annual plans and prioritization for fiduciary support. You will gain ideas for implementing such a process at your institution by exploring timing considerations, content of hearings, planning templates, and follow-up reporting and monitoring.
