Oct. 2 Meetings for Students on 'Foundation of the Future' Report

Students will have an opportunity to get information and ask questions about the recently released "Foundation of the Future" report at Town Hall Meetings on Tuesday, Oct. 2, in Wilde Auditorium.

A meeting for undergraduates will take place from 4 to 5 p.m., and a meeting for graduate students will be held from 5:30 to 6:30 p.m.

The University released a report on Monday containing the joint recommendations of the Foundation of the Future Academic and Administrative Task Forces. The two task forces, comprising 45 faculty and staff, were appointed last fall to conduct a comprehensive review and prioritization of the University’s academic and administrative programs, with the goal of determining where to reallocate and focus the University’s resources within the existing budget.

The joint report includes prioritized recommendations on more than 250 of the University’s academic and administrative programs. It recommends which academic and administrative programs should be invested in, maintained as they are, restructured for savings or efficiency, or divested in the coming years.

You can find a list of the recommendations and Frequently Asked Questions about Foundation of the Future at www.hartford.edu/FOTF.

In addition to attending one of the Oct. 2 meetings, you can submit feedback about the recommendations to FOTF@hartford.edu.
