The University as Neighborhood Builder

Leading an Integrated Process

We will show you how to see your institution's land from a new perspective, apply fresh ideas about mixed-use campus space, and use an integrated planning process to build consensus in times of change.
Abstract: This session will discuss how Michigan State University re-envisioned 140 acres through an integrated planning and exploratory design process that required continual adaptation. When building a vision for large land parcel redevelopment as a mixed-use, vibrant district, it is important to have an adaptive planning process with strong leadership and inclusive dialogue. We will show you how to see your institution's land from a new perspective, apply fresh ideas about mixed-use campus space, and use an integrated planning process to build consensus in times of change.

Three Revolutions

Why Education Leaders Need a Plan

In this session, we’ll unpack how higher education leaders can leverage integrated planning to get ready for and make the most of the compelling revolutions at hand.
Abstract: Preparing for the road ahead in education is far from easy. In this presentation, we’ll explore why. For example, we have rowdy revolutions in the tools of teaching and learning, including the expanding use of mobile technology, assessment tools, gaming systems, augmented reality, virtual reality, and more; in large-scale student success initiatives, including advising reforms, accelerated learning labs, and pathways programs; and in the use of advanced analytics to move from a culture of reporting to a culture of care. We’ll also unpack how leaders can leverage integrated planning to get ready for and make the most of the compelling revolutions at hand.

2019 Annual Conference | July 2019

How Is My Institution Going to Survive the Coming Demographic Cliff?

Abstract: A sharp, perhaps permanent contraction in the pool of college-aged students has become inescapable. Nearly all institutions could confront wrenching losses in competitiveness, revenue, or both. Yet despite advance warning, few institutions understand what they must do now to remain viable. We will go over two sets of tools that are critical for preparing for the upcoming demographic changes: 1) conducting analyses of institutional vulnerability; and 2) modeling what-if scenarios to shape strategy.
