Pew Roundtable at Ohio University

The Pew Roundtable provides an opportunity for colleges and universities to identify major issues and consider effective ways to address them. At Ohio University, groups of faculty, staff, and students worked together to:

• articulate the relationship between the specific core mission and the core values,
• develop strategies to achieve the mission within the context of the values, and
• identify actions needed to bring the strategies to fruition.
