bonwich Posted March 20, 2016 Share Posted March 20, 2016 I just got around to reading Universitas this weekend and saw Pestello's piece about the new strategic plan, so I opened it up and read it. The main page is here: http://www.slu.edu/strategicplan It's at least a hopeful sign in terms of what they'll be looking for in a new coach, etc.: Goal 4: We will utilize SLU’s athletics programs as a strategic asset in increasing the visibility of the SLU brand and the prestige of the University nationally and regionally. Objective 4.1: We will increase our applications for enrollment and enhance our fundraising by capitalizing on the national visibility of Billiken athletics. Objective 4.2: We will contribute to the University’s academic excellence through the high levels of academic success our student-athletes achieve. Objective 4.3: We will use Billiken athletics to further cultivate institutional pride and to strengthen town-and-gown relations with the metropolitan and regional communities. At least it's right there in writing! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JMM28 Posted March 20, 2016 Share Posted March 20, 2016 They might want to hire better marketing people. +10000. Marketing at the University as a whole is pretty terrible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TaLBErt Posted March 21, 2016 Share Posted March 21, 2016 That's all really good to hear, and it makes me excited to be an alum. Let's hope it comes to fruition! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
