Beloit College is creating five working teams whose mission over the next few months is to think strategically, critically, and creatively and help guide us toward a successful 2023-24 and beyond. The work of all five teams is deeply interdependent, and each team will include members of the Board of Trustees.

The teams include: Enrollment (Co-Chairs: Leslie Davidson and Yaffa Grossman), Student Experience (Tara Girard and a faculty member to be named), Budget (Co-Chairs: Stacie Scott and Donna Oliver, Space-use (Co-Chairs: Dan Schooff and Scott Espeseth), Academic Programs and Partnerships (Co-Chairs: Jim Rougvie and Amy Tibbitts)

Interim Provost Donna Oliver is the project manager.

Collectively, each team will develop a detailed set of actions to seek input and big ideas from the community, responds to lessons learned while picking the low-hanging fruit, offer a bold vision, with execution plans and implementation timetables, leads us to a balanced budget in 2024-25 and beyond, emphasizing revenue generation (current and new sources), and creates compelling cases for fundraising

The groups will start work this week and co-chairs will collectively meet weekly with both Scott and Eric (through June) and Eric (throughout the summer).

The teams will report their recommendations to the president by July 31.
