WSU President Elizabeth Cantwell shares a message about budgets and priorities with the university community ahead of Thursday's Board of Regents meeting.
As university leaders prepare for Thursday’s Board of Regents meeting, WSU President Elizabeth Cantwell is sharing that the proposed budget being presented represents a bold new direction amid the many state, federal and other challenges facing higher education.
“Rather than simply cut or react, we are using this moment to begin a purposeful realignment of WSU’s financial model — ensuring we focus our resources on what matters most, live within our means, and create space to invest in the future,” she says in a new video message to WSU students, faculty and staff.
The future will require continued courage, collaboration and clarity of purpose.
“This budget is not the end of a process,” she adds. “It is the beginning of a transformation.”
