The information presented at these meetings is the source for many Western Illinois University Board of
Trustees and Illinois Board of Higher Education reports and subsequent institutional planning and budgeting.
Combined, these presentations will demonstrate how Western Illinois University is collectively and
successfully advancing the priorities and goals in Higher Values in Higher Education. I will also provide you with
a summary of institutional plans and accomplishments from these presentations in a future Strategic Plan
Update.
If you have any questions regarding the information in this month’s Update, please contact me.
