Comments and Questions from Listening Session with Bruce
CBE Advisory Boards
Impressed with programs/students, particularly in the College of Fine and Performing Arts
Lack of connection with alumni reduces opportunity to tap into wealth of resources alumni have
Desire for more alumni to be able to live in Bellingham after graduation…WWU should look for economic development opportunities
Branding/Marketing: we have to do more than say we’re the best…must differentiate WWU from other schools (to both prospective students and employers)
WWU should consider offering programs in Seattle
Some parts of the state know more about us than others…should look for gaps and fill them
