Baton Rouge,
La. – The Southern University
Agricultural Land-Grant Campus kicked off the first day of its ‘Inaugural
Administrative Organization and Strategic Planning Retreat’ on July 31, 2017 at
the SU Law Center.
Collaboration
was the resounding theme of several departmental and program presentations on
day one of the retreat, which is being held to provide an opportunity for the
administrative staff to reform and reorganize the structure of the SU
Land-Grant Campus for the next year.
Presentations
on the Campus’s Southern Institute for Medicinal Plants and its Southern
Institute for One Health, One Medicine provided insight as to how other
Land-Grant Campus departments and programs can incorporate a venue for researchers, SU students
and small farmers and gardeners from the community. Both humans and animals
will benefit from these cross-collaborations of research, extension\outreach
and teaching.
The day
concluded with remarks by SU Land-Grant Campus Chancellor-Dean, Dr. Bobby R. Phills.
The retreat
will run until August 2 and will include team building exercises, breakout
sessions on an individual’s role in the collective vision, improving experiential
learning for students and mission planning and implementation.
The SU Ag Center and the
SU College of Agricultural, Family and Consumer Sciences together are called
the Southern University Agricultural Land-Grant Campus.
