"What questions or concerns do you have with the Regional Model?"

"I'm thrilled to see the regional model coming to fruition. What started as just a conversation a few years ago about bringing staff and faculty closer together to better support research and teaching, now has six academic-focused regions, committed regional leaders, a governance structure, and a shared-vision for success. A lot of thought and work has gone in to getting us to today; even more hard work lies ahead. However, I'm confident that our efforts will pay off as Deans assume more responsibility for service quality and administrative staff share in the success of the research and innovation emerging in their region."
                   - Ron Cohen, ChaMPS Regional Associate Dean
