Campaign Planning and Board of Visitors​

About

With the guidance of Interim Vice Chancellor and Campaign Director Leslie Schibsted, the Campaign Planning team coordinates planning for the university's comprehensive fundraising campaigns, including work with campus leadership, unit deans and fundraising teams, external campaign consultants, and campaign volunteers from across campus.  

The Board of Visitors (BoV) is an external strategic advisory group supporting the Chancellor and other campus leaders. Board meetings are held three to four times per year. Committee meetings, held throughout the year, focus on governance, finance and administration, academic affairs, capital strategies, external affairs and research.
