Delivering Big Ideas for Mega Gifts Update

Accomplishments

  • Completed our assessment of internal and external stakeholders who must inform the RFP process and developed a “visual representation of data” 
  • Members of our committee watched the annual research symposium to gain a better understanding of how research ideas are generated (e.g. the lighting round)

Obstacles/Challenges

  • Understanding and implementing associate dean feedback around fairness and a two-tiered RFP/intake process as we move forward
