A new strategic visioning process for East Tennessee State University – the Committee for 125 Chapter II – was launched by the ETSU Board of Trustees and President Dr. Brian Noland.
The initiative built upon the foundation of the Committee for 125 effort that began in 2012 outlining strategic goals the institution hoped to achieve upon its 125th anniversary in 2036. The goal of this new initiative was to develop a future-focused vision for ETSU that maximizes the power of the collective talent of the university and surrounding community to improve the lives of the people in the Appalachian Highlands. This first phase of the strategic planning process was focused on the vision, later in spring 2022 we used this vision to begin the strategy development phase of the project where we identified the best strategies and tactics to achieve the vision developed by the Committee for ETSU 125 Chapter II.
