UNIVERSITY OF SOUTH FLORIDA | PROVOST’S FALL ADDRESS

“The University of South Florida is on a trajectory unlike ever before in its history. We are reaching milestones once reserved for universities twice

strides in research, student success, teaching and community impact.

It has been the honor of my professional career to be part of this journey since the year 2000.”

GUIDING PRINCIPLES FOR CONSOLIDATION

  • Strengthen USF’s stature as a Preeminent

Research University with national and global prominence;

  • Embrace a model of “One University

Geographically Distributed” while preserving campus identity – guided by a transparent and collaborative process;

  • Commit to “Students First”, through

expanding access and raising educational attainment while continuing USF’s national best practice of student success and diversity;

  • Establish a clear, simple and unified

leadership structure by aligning accountability with authority and valuing shared governance through engaging students, faculty and staff on all campuses;

  • Assure consistency of high impact research

across the university through establishing centers and programs of academic excellence on each campus;

  • Enhance regional economic development

while avoiding unwarranted duplication of academic programs, and

  • Maximize performance, service quality and
  • perational efficiencies through optimizing the

utilization of faculty talent and technology across the University.
