91ÁÔÆæ

Path Forward

During “Reveille: Awakening the Future of Higher Education,” President Michael Shannon gave an inspirational talk that identified "moonshots" for 91ÁÔÆæ's strategic big bets to create the path for a university that has never existed.

Drawing parallels to President John F. Kennedy's iconic 1962 "We Choose to Go to the Moon" speech, Shannon outlined how these moonshot goals will allow 91ÁÔÆæ to deliver at scale for the region, state and nation.

He laid out this bold vision against the backdrop of a society that is growing increasingly skeptical of the value of higher education, arguing that 91ÁÔÆæ can answer its calling by differentiating itself and demonstrating relevance to the communities it serves.
