I’m pleased to announce that after approximately a year’s effort schoolwide, we are moving forward with four key strategic initiatives. After discussions with many constituents and leadership from our Academic Council and others, we’re advancing the school in these important areas:
Diversity, Equity and Inclusion
Facilities
People First
Research
In this episode, I meet with the leaders of each initiative to get a peek into what we’re doing for each area, and how our actions will help position us for the future.
It’s exciting to launch these initiatives in a New Year. Please read this article (https://www.vetmed.ucdavis.edu/news/strategic-initiatives-drive-school-forward) that provides more history and details to learn more.
To continue our leadership in veterinary medicine, we need to use our resources strategically and wisely. I thank everyone from the school community who helped inform these initiatives—you’re keeping us moving forward.
Happy New Year,
