Strategic Plan Steering Committee Expands to 21 Members

When work on Sul Ross State University’s strategic plan started in earnest back in August, 2016, it had 13 dedicated members (see http://bit.ly/2fmsEqG). The work now has reached the point that we are generating ‘strategies’ to support the plan’s goals and objectives.

The increasing volume of work meant  the steering committee had to expand to 21 members to cover more aspects of the university community. Most of the new members came on board as chairs of subcommittee’s working on specific areas of the plan.

Those 21 committee members are:

Dr. Bonnie Warnock, Professor of Natural Resource Management, CHAIR*
