These newly expanded approaches are just in time for today's competitive environment.'SUZANNE SHIPLEY, president, Shepherd University'Dickeson provides a compelling rationale for program prioritization as well as a practical planning structure that promotes alignment between programs, resources, and university mission. Presidents and provosts can use his approach to frame campus discussions around the future of the institution and away from legacy programs whose time has passed.'KYLE R. CARTER, provost and senior vice chancellor, Western Carolina University'Dickeson's approach ensures that critical decisions regarding academic programs and resource allocation are aligned with strategic goals and institutional mission.
