Mission pillar subgroups
Members of the Strategic Planning Council were tasked with forming subcommittees around each of our four mission pillars: Education; Research, Innovation & Economic Development; Community Engagement; and Patient Care. Membership on each of those subcommittees is listed here. The subcommittees worked to develop goals, objectives and activities/strategies for each of the mission pillars. They also provided input into the dashboard metrics appropriate for these goals.
