Howard University Board Approves Academic Renewal Plan, Two Residence Halls

January 29, 2011

Dear Members of the Howard Community:

I am excited to inform you that the Howard University Board of Trustees has unanimously approved the academic renewal recommendations. The Board has also approved recommendations for the construction of two new residence halls for students.

The Board’s action on academic renewal is a much welcomed outcome of a 13-month process in which our entire community was engaged at some level in our discussions on how best to position Howard University for the future. I thank all of you for your part in the process.  Now the real work begins and I look forward to our continued collaboration as we move forward.

President

Welcome to a new semester and a new year! Like you, I am grateful for the opportunities that the holiday provided us to reconnect with our loved ones. It was a meaningful time for me and I hope it was the same for you. Now that school is back in session, I am looking forward to working with you in what promises to be a productive year.
